"We have begun creating a process of discipleship at the church and have reorganized our leadership accordingly. Several intimate discipleship groups are meeting and lives are being changed for Christ . . . one at a time!​"

"Navigators have provided us with biblically-based, time-tested leadership and coaching to help our 100 years "young" Lutheran Church become a disciplemaking church. These are exciting days for us. Just as Christ intends for His Church!"

"Partnering with Navigators NCM has been one of the best pastoral decisions over my almost 40 years as a pastor. Together we have helped to equip leaders and congregants locally and nationally with effective life-changing tools for discipleship and disciplemaking. I value the real relationships developed and their genuine concern for the Kingdom and the local church."

Karl Road Baptist Church

Columbus, Ohio

"Our church has worked fruitfully with Bill [our Navigator coach] for about two and a half years. I have particularly appreciated Bill’s insistence that we build a discipleship culture rather than simply offering discipleship programs. We’ve taken a slow, methodical approach but we are seeing results. We now have over 40 people involved in discipleship triads, helping to build a strong discipleship culture."

First Christian Church

"Working with Navigators Church Ministries completely transformed my understanding of discipleship. I had no idea that our approach—focused on sermons, prayer, and Bible studies—wasn’t what Jesus intended. Over time, I’ve narrowed my focus to three men who are thriving in their obedience to Christ, conforming to His likeness, and now discipling others.

This was one of the top five most impactful experiences of my life as a Christian, pastor, and man. Navigators Church Ministries helped me see that true disciplemaking isn’t a program or curriculum—it’s personal, simple, and deeply biblical. If you’re considering working with them, be honored to participate, trust God’s leading, and jump in. It will upend what you’ve been doing and return your focus to the Lord’s original plan."

Victory Life Church

Lubbock, Texas

"Working with Navigators Church Ministries has been a game-changer for our church. They challenged my understanding of what it means to be a disciple and how to make disciples, giving me a proven pathway to reboot our church around Jesus’ mission. Through their guidance, we’re developing a CORE team of disciplemakers who are fully committed to each other, to Jesus, and to His mission.

The tools and principles I learned are biblical, practical, and transformative. This experience sharpened my thinking, deepened my heart-level commitment to the Great Commission, and gave me a clear vision for building a disciplemaking culture in our church. If you’re considering working with Navigators Church Ministries, make the time—it’s worth it."
