In this second episode of our Discovery by Practitioners series, we hear from disciple-makers across West Africa, particularly from French-speaking contexts, as they share how the Discovery Bible Study (DBS) is catalysing movements of disciple-making.
These leaders open up about the practical realities of applying DBS across cultures, languages, and contexts—always pointing back to simple obedience to the Word of God.
We first hear from a West African brother who unpacks how DBS is being used both for developing leaders and for outreach.
“This is how groups grow—first in size, then by multiplication.”
“Our questions might look different on the surface, but the heart and purpose remain the same.”
Next, we hear from another African practitioner working in a French-speaking region. He shares how the DBS process begins after identifying a Person of Peace—someone open to God and connected in their community.
Once this person is found, DBS often happens in their household or family, helping whole families discover God together.
“If there’s no obedience step or sharing, it’s not a DBS—it’s just another Bible study.”
“We don’t just identify needs. We encourage the group itself to respond. That’s how we bring dignity and ownership to the group.”
