Meet AFM Training

AFM’s core business is investing in people (Matthew 28:18-20), that means you. It has to be if starting disciple-making movements is our mission mandate. God’s kingdom grows when more people choose to join his family (numerical growth) and when the people in the family grow-up in Christ (discipleship maturity) and become multipliers. The purpose of the training department at AFM is to facilitate this second kind of growth and investment so that the first kind of growth can happen with integrity.
