2026 Disciple-Making Leaders (Year-Round) Network

The Disciple-Making Leaders Year-Round Mentoring Network is led by John Musselman. The goal of this initiative is to provide Christian leaders with comprehensive training in disciple-making, including biblical and theological foundations, historic and contemporary applications and methods, and a careful analysis of every stage in the discipling process. This initiative seeks to:

• Foster leaders’ personal development in the context of peer relationships
• Strengthen leaders’ commitment to disciple others in the words and ways of Jesus
• Encourage leaders to be devoted to training a new generation of mature and reproducing leaders for the exponential spread of the gospel throughout Europe and beyond

The 2025 Network at the European Leadership Forum is only one component of the Disciple-Making Year-Round Mentoring group. The full curriculum will include:

1. A four-day private Network at the 2025 European Leadership Forum, 17-22 May 2025
2. A Pre-Forum meeting with all participants on Saturday, 17 May 2025
3. One-on-one meeting during the Forum
4. Six two-hour webinars with assignments between the 2025 and 2026 Forums
5. A four-day retreat in early December 2025 (place & dates to be determined)  
6. A Pre-Forum Conference before the 2026 ELF on Friday evening and all-day Saturday (15-16 May 2026)

Participation in this Network is by invitation only. Participants should be men who are spiritually mature Evangelical leaders who are actively involved in evangelism and discipleship and are willing to commit to becoming part of a learning community.

Interested applicants need to first apply and be accepted to the Forum before filling out an application specific to the Disciple-Making Year-Round Mentoring Network. If you wish to apply for the 2025-2026 Year-Round Mentoring for Disciple-Making Leaders, please review this year's curriculum and complete the online application.
