AIM FOR THE BULLSEYE
Re-centering the Great Commission
A Conference on Kingdom Focus, Disciple-Making, and Lasting Impact
What Are We Really Aiming At?
Every serious marksman knows the difference between hitting the target and hitting the bullseye.
Activity alone is not success. Precision matters.
Jesus made the target unmistakably clear: “As you are going, make disciples…who make disciples.” — Matthew 28:19-20
The question this conference asks is simple—but significant: “Are our lives and ministries aimed at the center of the target—or drifting toward the edges?”
Why This Conference Matters
Most churches, ministries, and believers are busy.
Many are faithful. But few are reproducing.
This conference is designed to help leaders, mentors, and everyday believers:
- Clarify the end goal of discipleship
- Identify why drift happens—even with good intentions
- Re-align personal lives and ministries toward generational impact
Leadership teacher Stephen Covey famously stated, “Begin with the end in mind.” This conference will help us rediscover the biblical “end”—and aim accurately.
Who Should Attend?
- Pastors and church leaders
- Ministry staff and volunteers
- Small-group leaders and mentors
- Anyone longing for a faith that multiplies beyond themselves
Session Titles
- Clarifying the Target
- Creating Your Playbook
- Developing the Heart of a Disciple-maker
Workshops: We will also have three outstanding workshops for smaller group interaction:
The Wheel as an assessment tool
The Ways of the Alongsider: Foundational concepts and best practices for significant investment in established disciples, leading to their own fruitfulness as disciplemakers.
Sharing Jesus without losing your cool: Evangelism for today
Conference Takeaways
Participants will leave with:
- Renewed vision for disciple-making that lasts
- A clear, biblical framework for kingdom impact
- Practical insight into building a three-generational spiritual lineage
- Encouragement to keep aiming—especially when results seem slow
It’s Not About Doing More … It’s About Aiming Better
Join us as we re-center our aim, recover the joy of generational disciple-making, and once again aim for the bullseye.
Because hitting the target is good. But hitting the bullseye changes generations.
