Directing Toward Discipleship
Making it all happen
Although the SMBS Teacher is the visible point person of a SMBS class, he/she will quickly burn out or become ineffective without the help of a discipling director. An effective teacher will empower his/her director to lead the outreach, care, and administrative functions of the class. |
