Disciple Making Movement (DMM) Definitions
Various definitions of a Disciple Making Movement (DMM) are used in the world of global evangelism. The unfamiliar can easily be confused by the terms; CPMs, DMMs, DBS, T4T. There is a lot of terminology and jargon that is thrown around! Let’s try to keep things simple.
The terms Disciple Making Movement (DMM) and Church Planting Movement (CPM) are basically interchangeable. Some would say that a DMM emphasizes disciples making disciples, while a CPM emphasizes church-planting churches. For common purposes, however, the concepts are basically the same. If you have disciples making disciples, you generally will also have some kind of discipleship groups multiplying and becoming house churches as well.
4 Important Characteristics of A DMM
Disciple Making Movements (DMMs) are:
- fast-growing
- indigenous (of the local culture)
- multiplying groups
- obedient Jesus followers (disciples).
Disciples gather themselves into groups that we sometimes call “house churches” though these groups can meet anywhere, not only in homes. In some DMMs, groups meet in a tea shop or under a tree. The groups can be called discipleship groups, story groups, T4T groups, etc. The name is not important. What matters is that they are a group of people who are following Jesus and committed to obeying His commands together.
Whatever you call these groups of Jesus followers, in Disciple Making Movements (DMMs), they multiply quickly and start more groups.
The first generation group of disciples starts a second generation. Usually, more than one group is started from the first one. The second-generation groups do the same. True DMMs experience multiplication growth, not simply addition growth.
In a Disciple Making Movement, the emphasis is not on growing an ever increasingly large church, but on multiplying small groups of disciples who make disciples.
If, within a short space of time (three to five years) we see:
- at least four generations of groups,
- a significant overall number of groups (between 50 to 100)
- a growing number of obedient disciples (there is no exact number but likely you will see at least 500 baptized)
Then, we can say a Disciple Making Movement, or DMM, has begun.
An addition to the above three things, some agencies that track movements have added one more factor to the definition. They look for the presence of multiple streams of disciple-making groups in the movement. In other words, the movement doesn’t have just one fourth-generation church. Instead, many varied parts of the movement are reaching fourth generation and beyond.
While definitions like this are important, let’s not over-complicate it.
Let the researchers and strategists debate the definitions. We must focus on multiplying disciples among the unreached!
When there is a move of God, disciples are rapidly multiplying, and thousands of people are coming into the kingdom in a short amount of time through ordinary disciples passionately obeying Christ and boldly spreading the gospel everywhere they go…that is what we call a new Disciple Making Movement (DMM)!
The rapid multiplication of disciples among the unreached is incredibly exciting and very much needed if we are to see the Kingdom of God advance! Without it, if we allow ourselves to be content with only addition growth of Jesus followers, we can barely keep up with natural population growth rates among most of the unreached. There are many other reasons why we need to see more DMMs taking place.
Following are several definitions by leading writers and teachers of CPMs and DMMs from their various perspectives.
David Garrison author of Church Planting Movements:
A definition for Church Planting Movements: “a rapid multiplication of indigenous churches, planting churches that sweeps through a people group or population segment.”
David Watson author of Contagious Disciple Making:
To see a CPM, the equipping of leadership is critical. Our definition of leadership includes the reproduction of leaders. A leader makes more leaders regularly, and…
To see a CPM, the obedience-based discipleship of all people is essential. Our definition of a disciple includes obedience to Jesus and the reproduction of disciples. An obedient disciple makes more disciples regularly, and…
To see a CPM, Bible story/study groups reproduce regularly, and…
To see a CPM, churches reproduce regularly, and…
To see a CPM, church members are ministering to their communities, and the Kingdom of God is expanding from individual to individual, family to family, community to community, city to city, and nation to nation.
YWAM Frontier Missions:
Our goal is never to plant only one church. We want to start groups of Jesus followers (disciples) that then start other groups of disciples growing into movements of disciples. Everything we do should lead to multiplication. Apostolic teams should carefully evaluate their strategies and ways of working to make sure they are reproducible. We avoid doing things that have proven to hinder multiplication, such as building church buildings, paying local pastors or elders, or bringing in a lot of foreign finances and forms.
Disciple Making Movements (DMMs) Are Happening
These are exciting times in the history of world evangelization. There has never been greater challenge or greater openess than we see today. In many parts of the world, among some of the hardest places and most resistant people, DMMs are sweeping through communities and nations as people encounter Jesus.
As Jesus said, “the harvest is ripe.” We have a great privilege to partner with Him in the things that are on His heart in our generation. One of them, very obviously, is to release Disciple Making Movements among the unreached.

I am a Pastor in Dominion city church
I need this materials to make all the church members a disciple making disciples
I want to build a church but we don’t have the resources but I try to work with people on the Word of God
Author
Hi Riaz. Building a church is not about a physical building, it is about people. In DMMs we often don’t have church buildings but people meet in homes or other places. Check out my free resource called What Makes A Church, A Church.
I love this mission and Kingdom assignment
Thank you for information.
This is great Ministry
Hi! Can you give any training and advice for DMM in Western Contexts? I am interested/ praying for strategy and resources for London where there are scores of people groups all living side by side.
Author
Please write to us to inquire further about this. We can put you in touch with others. Alternatively, join the DMMs Facebook group and reach out to others there.
I had the same thought… how can we use DMM training in a culture that is soft… not suffering persecution? I’d like training material as well 🙂
Author
Hi Jill. The principles are the same in every culture. One of the most significant mindset shifts needed is the understanding of the priesthood of all believers – that every disciple can be trained to make disciples and start groups. This has little to do with persecution issues, but has more to do with traditions and equipping people to fulfill the great commission rather than relying on ordained clergy to do this work. This is where DMM type training can have revolutionary impact in “soft” cultures as well. Lots of other things that relate across all cultures too.
Sure. Happy to help. Do you have a particular question we can answer? Please email me at hello@ywamfm.org.

Behold its great, the movement is working am in Uasingishu in Kenya.May God bless you
Through DMM we are maturing spiritually as youths going through DBS(Discover bible studies)
Do you believe that a disciple can be a non-Christian? Your materials talk a lot about obedience and discipleship and not much about Salvation. I’m a little confused, I always thought that disciples were Christians seeking to grow closer to their savior….
Author
Thanks for your question. To answer simply, no, I don’t think you can be a disciple without first receiving salvation. I’m curious what gave you the idea that I thought that! The first step of obedience to Christ is to repent and believe in Jesus, accepting His free gift of salvation. You then begin that love relationship with Him you spoke about…growing closer to your Savior. The first of the discipleship lessons we use has to do with salvation- our spiritual birth. See the blog post on how to work with new believers https://www.dmmsfrontiermissions.com/starting-strong-new-believers/ for more information on this. Discipleship does involve obedience and it is definitely a characteristic of movements that they are obedience based, not knowledge based, but they are also definitely relationship based as well. Hope this clears things up for you. Blessings!

I’m Saleem. working on the project of Disciples Making Movement and kids ministry in small villages, where no one reaching out to the unreachable people and groups, so I heard about this movement in 2015 from some international friends and I really touched and felt that this movement should be start here and we started it as Jesus ways of Discipleship no conversions. My country is hard target and not easy land for Christian preachers. In 2017 we graduated 200+ youngsters and 3000+kids in different areas. Spiritual Multiplication had begun but we didn’t have regular mentors to support us and keep us on the track its always an obstacle to our ways towards this movement.
So this time as we have Christmas season we’re working on the project kids ministry and letting the families and kids about the real gift of Christmas and it’s purpose with super book movie and booklet materials. In January we’re again going to restart our DBS and DMM movement and we need proper training and prayer support.
Please let me know how we can work together on this mission?
Blessings and love.
I’m a former minister who is now trying to grow a Jesus movement in a very secular post Christian part of the USA. I sure would like to know how to do this. All my training seems like it doesnt fit with what’s needed.

Good Day
Paul as a missionary and disciple set the example of continual focused effective wise prayer on behalf of his disciples and himself.
That is why Paul was the most effective in ministry
In many of the prayers he recorded, he uses the terms, “I always pray for you, we have not ceased praying for you,, always in every prayer of mine making request for you all with joy”
I would like to share with you a combination of scriptural prayers designed by and given by the Holy Spirit that covers the absolute essentials for spiritual growth and dynamic spreading of the Word of the Lord.
These prayers have a logic sequence and follows the blue print given by the Lord Jesus.
Andrew Murray said, “If the global body of Christ prays effectively it will cause the biggest world wide revival of all time” .
When new disciples know these prayers and WHY they pray them it will greatly enhance their spiritual growth
Kind Regards and God bless

This is what I believe God wants in Mozambique.. a DMM.
Am already subscribed in Getting Started in DMMs. I can’t wait to learn!

We are excited for you!
I am pastor Benjamin Mondal from khulna Bangladesh.
I am very much greatful to you that included me in your prayers and reaching goals.
I started planting churches since 1998. But I have only my family in the beginning. We are husband and wife with our 3 God gifted childre. It continued up to 2000.
God wanted me to go to others with His good news and my wife asked me to go I started. In 2002 we have 8 except my family.
That time we don’t have enough experience about discipleship.
When we read Mathew cheaper 28 :19-20 we valued thease verses. Because that was Jesus last commandments to His disciples.
From that time with 8 (from different locations) started to follow Jesus commandments. It is continuing. Today we have 90 (45 pastor and 45 disciples) from new locations.
Our focus is to go unreached people groups.
We need better trading for new disciples and new commers to encouragement.
If there is any team who wanted to teach more practically will be helpful for us to reach to our goals. Making disciples and to send them with good news to unreached people. To plant churches in their community.
Thanks again.
I am kadondi tom from kenya your former student I am so much happy with your training it work well on me,I share a lot from what I learn from you.I n other we say that God are the one who brought you from us.we always meeting with our friend who came out side from our town, they always using there money on traveling ,in short because we are looking for multiplication not only in one place but every where they requesting me to have your resource, so i said to them that i need to request permission first then to give them feed back, what can I do to them to move on with the training?
This is so Powerful, av already reached out to a number to start up with, so far, 4have responded, and lam so excited to hold my first meeting this Thursday 9th July 2020. I believe and l am trusting God more, as l plan to reach out to many more. My dream is reaching out to the remote areas within our country, my initial target was schools with the Youths that l have been mentoring, but with the schools closed due to COVID 19, we are still going to reach the youth and the others by all means. just as in
1Thessalonians5; 11
Encourage one another and edify (strengthen and build up) one another just as you are doing.
We need your prayers.

Rom 10:14 How, then, can they call on him they have not believed in? And how can they believe without hearing about him? And how can they hear without a preacher? And how can they preach unless they are sent? As it is written: How beautiful are the feet of those who bring good news.

Thank you so much i need to more and more and am ready to taught, rebuked and corrected with love to the glory of Christ Jesus.
I am so feed up with the so called local congregations… I am tired of warming up a pew bench every Sunday, clap hands in front of a rock band and going nowhere…..this is mere entertainment!

Aloha DMM Friends:
My wife and I planted churches in Hawaii and China. Upon returning to the USA (pre-Covid), we joined Cru to help start churches in America. Cru teaches DMM! We are ruined. I love the traditional church, but I am convinced that DMM is the direction for the church in the U.S.A. I wish I had this training 30 years ago when I started ministry! While in the USA for the last one and half years, I have completed all my academic portion of a Doctorate of Ministry degree at Global University (Assembly of God online seminary). My theses is, “DMM in the U.S.A.”
I think my topic is the most important doctoral dissertation for America today!! Of the 30 or so pastors I meet monthly with in the the Philadelphia area (through pastoral prayer groups), all of them are not sure how to continue with their traditional attractional Sunday morning service. Tens of thousands of pastors in the USA need understanding of how DMM works, possible modification to their present church leadership, and actual numbers of how DMM is working in America.
Is there anyone I can talk to at your training headquarters? I would love to contact pastors that are currently doing DMM at their local congregations. Plus, I would like to collect a couple of hundred DMM small group leaders via a five minute survey.
Pastors in the U.S.A. need not just methodology, but actual numbers of effective DMM pastors. With such data, I hope to send my dissertation to any pastor in America (or any country). My hope is to get current data and methodology into pastoral circles. Cru estimates that there are 160 million people who do not know the basics of the Gospel in the USA. We need DMM to more effectively start churches. As you all know, DMM one of the best answers to the failing attractional church model.
What do you think?

Hi Doug. Great to hear of your doctoral thesis at AGTS! Awesome. One of the keys to DMMs is that it goes beyond pastors and that we embrace the idea that every disciple can make disciples and start groups of disciples that function as the church. Disciple Making Movements lead to church planting movements but without the hierarchy of the clergy. Email us and we can point you in a few directions to talk with other pastors who are pulling pastors together around this kind of thinking. admin@dmmsfrontiermissions.com
Aloha Mrs. Anderson:
I have read 13 of your articles in my research. My doctoral advisor directed me to Mission Frontiers magazine. I hope to conduct 20 one hour Zoom interviews with pastors in the USA that are transitioning towards DMM. Is there a chance I can interview you via Zoom?
Or is there someone else there that I could connect with?
And is it possible that you could email me directly? I have responded to your email two months later as I accidentally found your response researching this web page again.

Hello brother Sheikh, nice to hear from you. I am sorry but we are not a funding agency and do not provide financial support to anyone. We only offer training and coaching. May God supply all your needs as you continue to serve Him brother!
It’s a great opportunity for me to learn and apply the kingdom information to influence others and cause heaven to be repopulated
Since your org is not knowledge
Based don’t you think is is wise to partner with local bible churches to help them develop dmm programs in the body of believers esp in the USA
We don’t need more baby churches we need an revival of the body.of believers to spread the good news to everyone arround them.
Author
Hey Vince. Not sure I understand your first statement there. We do partner with churches and training institutions that really want to multiply disciples and work with them, but what we have found is that many are more interested in building their church attendance rates than in multiplying disciples. Totally agree that we need revival, but often that kind of renewal comes through new believers and new ways of operating as the body of Christ. Blessings!
Am interested in having DMM materials in order for me to gain more experience that will enable me to start working confidently.
May I kindly have the training tools pls
Thank you
Waht a wonderfull materials, I like these materials, I need some more materials about DMM. Thank you for your valuable materials.

I’ve heard the term “mega-movement”… how would you define that? The stats say there are 6 of them in the world. ?
Author
Haha. That’s the trouble with terms. Different people define them differently. I’d define a mega-movement as having over 15 generations and over 10,000 disciples. But you need to go to the source of whoever is quoting that and saying there are six. Because there are many more than that if you use my definition.
Thanks a lot for this investment in the kingdom.
Don’t we think that we are creating and having troubles with terms and definitions because we are not using the Bible’s terms?
The second comment that cnnects to the first one is whether we do not see that the tendancy in talking about DMM/CPM is to patch a new garment with an old piece? Let’s take just one term “Mega-movement” and the statement that there are only 6 of them in the world. Dont’we see that it is just falling in the traditional way of talking about “mega-churches” and the ranking of churches “the most…church3, the biggest….in the …?
My call to brothers and sisters involved in DMM/CPM has always been BACK TO THE FOUNDATION. LET4S STAY IN THE BIBLE? LET4S REPLICATE THE MASTER JESUS4 MODEL AND HIS BIBLICAL APOSTLES:DISCIPLES

Yes, we need to stay biblical in all we do. Terms are just terms, but God has used them to focus our attention during various seasons of missions history. For example the term Unreached People Group is a term not found in the Bible but that God has used greatly to stir the hearts of His people and motivate them to reach the lost. Its both/and, not either/or here but I appreciate your point.
Disciple Making Movements I am a servant of God and a disciple of Jesus Christ for the last ten years, I have been spreading the Gospel from house to house. During this time I also conducted many discipleship trainings and discipled many people. Now our team has become a strong network. In which we bring the good news of the Gospel to thousands of people every day. Seeing your website gave me hope that there is now a movement that is in line with our thinking and the Bible. And we want to be a part of this movement. The good news should be preached door to door throughout Pakistan. And then spread the Gospel to the ends of the earth. Our hope now is in the Disciple Making Movement. Earlier many discipleship movements came and took records of reports and photographs and did not ask us back. Now you get us your training and work to spread the gospel in Pakistan.
Your Brother in Christ!
