In Part 2 of Ralph Moore’s conversation with Peyton Jones, the focus turns to the heart behind Peyton’s new book Discipology and the disciple-making pattern Jesus used to train His followers.

Peyton reflects on his years planting churches in the U.K., where small congregations forced leaders to rely on disciple-making rather than large programs or events. During that season he worked a series of jobs—including factory work, firefighting, and even barista shifts at Starbucks—discovering firsthand how everyday workplaces became powerful mission fields for the gospel.

The discussion then moves to the deeper research behind Discipology. Peyton explains how studying the book of Acts and Paul’s missionary journeys revealed something surprising: Paul himself was on a learning curve, gradually adapting his strategy to mobilize teams and multiply leaders. That realization drove Peyton back to the Gospels to ask a bigger question: How did Jesus actually train the disciples?

What he found became the framework for the book: Time. Teaching. Tactics.

These three rhythms shaped how Jesus developed the Twelve—first spending extended time with them, then teaching them as they traveled and ministered together, and finally sending them out to practice the mission themselves.
