*A disciple-making Christian leader is a Christian with a life worth emulating who commits himself/herself for an extended period of time to friendship with a few individuals who have been won to Christ, the purpose being to facilitate their spiritual growth so they can multiply themselves in a third spiritual generation as fellow disciple-making Christian leaders. (This is adapted from Allen Hadidian's definition of discipling.)
