Disciple Making Movement (DMM)

A Disciple Making Movement (DMM) is a rapid and exponential increase in disciples making disciples. These movements share a distinct group of priorities which provide the environment for unhindered multiplication. Elements that are common to DMM are an emphasis on prayer, finding the Person of Peace (POP), conducting Discovery Bible Studies (DBS), and aiming for Obedience Based Discipleship (OBD).
