1. Immediate Follow-Up

Once the form is submitted, two things happen instantly:

1. Automated Email or Text (warm, encouraging, personal tone — includes link to first discipleship resource, e.g., “Welcome to the Family” video or PDF).

2. Assigned Discipler – Email/text notification goes to a regional discipleship leader or local pastor with the contact info for personal follow-up.

2. Discipleship Journey Layout

Instead of dumping all content at once, organize into Phases. This makes the process feel achievable and intentional.

Phase 1 – Foundations (Weeks 1–4)

• Topics: Assurance of Salvation, How to Pray, How to Read the Bible, The Holy Spirit

• Format: Short videos (5–7 min), downloadable notes, reflection questions

Phase 2 – Growing in Christ (Weeks 5–8)

• Topics: Church Community, Worship, Giving, Obedience & Holiness

• Interactive elements: Quizzes, Journaling prompts

Phase 3 – Living the Mission (Weeks 9–12)

• Topics: Sharing Your Faith, Serving in the Church, Spiritual Gifts, Evangelism Lifestyle

• Challenge: Share your testimony with 1 person this week

3. Integration with Local Churches

• The system automatically connects each new convert with their closest local church (using ZIP code mapping).

• The local pastor receives all form submissions in their area.

• Pastors can mark progress in a simple dashboard.

4. Resource Library

Even after the structured 12-week pathway, keep them connected through a library:

• Bible reading plans

• Downloadable study guides

• Short teaching videos on deeper theological topics

• Links to live or archived Bible studies

5. Ongoing Engagement

• Monthly discipleship newsletter

• Prayer request form

• Opportunities for the convert to join serving teams or small groups in their local church
