Discipled in Christ Origin Story with Aaron Guyett and Steve Stary

Discipled in Christ is a Social Media and eLearning platform to allow individuals and partner churches to foster community and daily discipleship within their local congregation and across the internet. Unlike typical social media experiences, everyone using Discipled in Christ technology can connect face to face with other users. That’s because the only users they will encounter are other members of their local church. Discipled in Christ does not replace relationships, it enhances them through regular connection, shared experiences, and mutual love for one another. The social features are amazing, but are not the ultimate purpose behind

The integrated eLearning system, social features, and included content are designed to create a lifestyle of daily discipleship and fellowship. The Discipled in Christ software delivers social media functionality such as following/friending other users, private direct messaging between users, group participation and discussions, and open or closed forum discussions.

The eLearning capabilities deliver Discipled in Christ programming like the “100 in His Strength” course and the “See the Bible in 60 Days”. Any new courses created are included in addition to the ability to create custom eLearning courses unique to each church.

The experience for church members is seamless and the technology is invisible. Leaders of Leaders (the parent Christian non-profit organization) creates, hosts, maintains, and administrates each Discipled in Christ website and app on behalf of the individuals and church partners--so no special knowledge is required.

Every Discipled in Christ partner receives training for either a staff member or lay leader to be the Online Community Leader. The Community Leader functions as a moderator to ensure all users are exhibiting respect for the community and other members.

Additionally the Community Leader provides support and guidance to the users by monitoring public forums and discussions for counseling opportunities and providing direct engagement, prayer, and even technical assistance in using the software.

Leaders of Leaders is a non-profit 501c3 corporation, co-directed by Aaron Guyett and Steve Stary.
