Join Grant Edwards and Dr. Ron Braley as they tackle the alarming statistic that 80% of new believers abandon their faith within three months, offering insights on foundational versus formational discipleship, emphasizing the importance of structured guidance, and providing practical strategies to help churches retain and nurture new Christians. Grant Edwards and Dr. Ron Braille present on the critical need for foundational discipleship in churches, given that 80% of new believers walk away from faith within three months. They emphasize that every Christian can be a disciple maker, starting with foundational discipleship that involves one-on-one guidance focusing on the initial three months of a new believer's journey. Grant shares his personal testimony and insights from decades of discipling, stressing the importance of teaching foundational disciplines such as prayer, Bible study, fellowship, and witnessing. They advocate for immediate, personal discipleship over broader formational approaches, arguing that effective one-on-one discipleship builds a strong foundation that can greatly reduce the high attrition rate among new believers.
