In Part 2 of our series on movement growth, we explore the real dangers that can come with rapid multiplication in Disciple-Making Movements (DMMs). While we long to see millions reached with the Gospel, we must also ensure that growth is healthy, sustainable, and rooted in strong discipleship.

Movements may feel like a modern phenomenon, but their roots trace all the way back to the New Testament. In this episode, Cynthia sits down with Dr. Wes Watkins—scholar, academic, and leader in the Motus Dei Network—to explore how God is working through disciple-making movements today. Together, they dive into a thoughtful and honest theological and academic examination of these movements, asking the tough questions and seeking clarity for the future of missions and the church.
