Disciple-Making Movements, or DMM, is a missions strategy that has been employed by missionaries across the world. Sometimes controversial, the missions model sought to help people come to Christ, even in countries where persecution was rife.
DMM followed an earlier, related strategy called Church-Planting Movements, or CPM. David Garrison helped pioneer CPM in the late 1990s and the missions strategy has morphed since then.
But what is DMM? How did it evolve from CPM? Whatdo pastors and Christians need to know about the missional framework now that DMM is cropping up not just overseas, but in congregations across the West?
“Sean,” a pastor, former missionary, and former parachurch leader, joins the Christian Emergency Podcast to sketch out what DMM represents as well as its implications. Drawing from his extensive experience overseas, Sean offers rare insights into a topic many believers have neverheard of before. With their eyes wide open, biblical Christians can make informed decisions on the type of churches, and they type of missions, they wish to advance.
