We have a three-step strategy for advancing the Disciple-Makers Movement in those 20 nations:

1. Establish a beachhead.

2. Raise up disciple-making outposts.

3. Establish a command center.

a. Launch missionary works within the nation.

Three Things Everyone Should Know

Greetings Praying Partners,

Summer has begun and the fields are already white to harvest! We here at Take The Challenge are working hard to position laborers to ensure that all our opportunities will be realized and disciples will be made among the nations.

To this end, we have an exciting announcement –

The Mark Phillips family will join TTC as missionaries on July 1, 2025!

 

In order to do this, Mark has quit his job as the COO of a major manufacturing company, and they are currently in the process of raising support. Visit the link in our “June Praise Reports” section below if you would like to join their support team.

Mark and Whitney Phillips, Liam and Korbin
Here’s an introduction in their own words.

“Greetings from Mark, Whitney, Liam, and Korbin Phillips. We are excited to partner with TTC as staff missionaries to help see the disciple-making movement grow and expand into new areas all throughout the world. We have a keen heart for discipling others, and this has been from the beginning for us both. As Whitney put it just a few months ago, ‘If we are not discipling others, then what are we really doing?’ The harvest is ripe, and the laborers are few. Our response to the Lord is simple, ‘Here we are, send us!’”

DM Group Leaders (“Coaches”) in the Philippines

In other news, the disciple-makers movement is truly flourishing around the world, especially in the Philippines. From its humble beginnings of three disciple-makers (DM) groups in May 2024, the Philippines DM Movement (PDMM) has grown to over 35 DM groups in just the past twelve months. We are currently in the midst of a campaign to establish a PDMM Command Center to manage and extend the movement across the Philippines and into neighboring nations. Watch this announcement for more information about how you can get involved in this momentous project.

Kenya Command Center Also on the Horizon

Finally, and Mark will leave for Africa in six weeks to encourage the disciple-makers and establish a Command Center in Kenya. In the last 15 months, the number of disciple-makers in Kenya has multiplied greatly. Currently, more than 35 of the 65 weekly DM groups there are led by disciples of the disciples of Scott’s original three disciples. That means Scott is a great-grandfather many times over in Kenya!

June Praise Reports:

1. For the incredible growth of the disciple-makers movement around the world (from 50 groups training 325 pastors weekly to 120 groups training 750 pastors weekly in the last 18 months).
2. For raising up the Phillips family to be laborers in the global disciple- makers movement. Contact us or visit our eGive portal to join their support team.
3. For the great number of volunteers (in the U.S. and around the world) who are giving their time, talent, and treasure to help us reach nations for disciple-making.

June Prayer Requests:

1. God to bring in all the necessary funds to establish the PDMM Command Center in the Philippines by July 1, 2025. (So far we have raised $8.5K of the $25K needed.)
2. Wisdom in restructuring our Kenya national leadership to allow us to establish the KDMM as a self-sustaining, missionary-sending organization that will reach East Africa and beyond!
3. Grace for Scott to manage all the growing pains associated with the exponential growth of disciple-makers. = )
Thank you so much!

With your help we are…

Raising Disciple-Makers,
Scott and the TTC team
