Everything about DISCIPLE IV is the same as DISCIPLE I except for:

1. DISCIPLE IV runs 32 weeks. This is 2 weeks shorter than DISCIPLE I (34 weeks).

2. DISCIPLE IV focuses on The Writings in the Old Testament (Ruth, 1 & 2 Chronicles, Ezra, Nehemiah, Ester, Job, Psalms, Proverbs, Ecclesiastes, Song of Solomon, Lamentations, and Daniel) and the Gospel of John, the epistles of John, James, Jude, and The Revelation in the New Testament. 

 

Do I have to take DISCIPLE I before I take DISCIPLE IV? 

Yes. DISCIPLE I is the foundational curriculum for all DISCIPLE courses. This requirement not only prepares participants for the study content, but also ensures participants are experienced in small group dynamics.

 

Do I have to take DISCIPLE II and III before taking DISCIPLE IV? 

No. Only DISCIPLE I is required before enrolling in other DISCIPLE courses.

 

Is DISCIPLE IV offered every year? 

Like all group offerings, the availability of DISCIPLE IV is contingent upon a qualified volunteer leader and a minimum (usually 6) of committed participants.

 

Who is qualified to lead DISCIPLE IV? 

Anyone who has graduated from DISCIPLE I is eligible to be considered as a leader. Training is provided and required for all new group leaders.
