Last week I mentioned that 3DM has been quietly training marketplace leaders in our discipleship tools for a few years now. As we’ve engaged with these leaders, we’ve found that they are asking questions like Is this all there is to life? Is there a way to live the “life to the full” that Jesus promises in [...]

Over the past five years, as 3DM has been training church leaders in discipleship and mission through learning communities and coaching, marketplace leaders have also been approaching us, asking us to help them live out their faith in the workplace. Thus far we have simple been quietly providing coaching and consulting to these leaders, using [...]

You may or may not know, 3DM has been doing Learning Communities for almost 5 years and we are starting to see the real fruit of this training vehicle. As such, we want to be good stewards of this fruit and share the stories of these churches so we can all learn from them…both their [...]

The 3DM Content Team is hard at work on final edits of our new Missional Community book (coming out this Fall!!). One of the items this new book will have is an addendum for pastors in established churches as well as for church planters who are looking to use Missional Communities to plant a church. [...]

We are really proud of the first book we put out, but feel it has run its’ course. What we feel is really necessary right now is a book that simplifies Missional Communities. [...]

On Sunday night at our weekly training worship service, I did a teaching on the miraculous and thought I would share some of the notes. (BTW, if you’d like to hear the audio of the teaching, you can listen to it here.) These thoughts come from the healing of blind Bartimaeus found in Luke 18. [...]
