Michelle Clifford

Are the Christians in your church becoming pursuers of God? Or are they stuck, not growing and not knowing how to live out their faith?

Michelle Clifford has created a unique curriculum, Pursuit, to develop passionate followers of Christ. In this BOW podcast episode, she and team member Kelley Mathews discuss why she created it, its elements and how it works. She points out how Pursuit is different from the programs we often consider discipleship. Michelle has found that those who participate are indeed becoming pursuers of God. Her ideas may be just what you need for your church or those whom you disciple.
