Discipleship Turns Classes into Formation Pathways
Discipleship is now a top-level TheFaithApp product for church-owned classes
and spiritual formation. Administrators can start blank or use a membership,
baptism, new-believer, or leadership template, then customize every section and
lesson for their church.Lessons can combine teaching, Scripture, video, audio, downloads, reflection,
group discussion, and acknowledgement prompts. Teachers can add optional or
required quizzes with single-choice, multiple-choice, true-or-false, and
short-answer questions, along with accepted answers, scoring, explanations,
passing thresholds, and attempt limits.Discipleship managers can assign teachers and reviewers without giving every
staff member full product control. Publishing creates a fixed pathway version,
so a learner keeps the lessons they started while the church prepares a later
update.Members can discover pathways in the mobile app, enroll in open pathways,
request approval where required, continue lessons, take quizzes, and follow
their progress through completion. Staff can approve requests, add invited
learners, and review or manage enrollment from the pathway learner dashboard.
Churches can also place Discipleship directly in their customized mobile
navigation.Churches can enable completion certificates and customize their title, award
text, signatory, and accent color. Completing all required lessons issues a
downloadable PDF automatically. Each certificate has a public verification
page, and authorized teachers can revoke a certificate that was issued in
error.A unified formation-history view, mentorship, goals, and private class journals
remain future work.Read the Discipleship product guide to set up
permissions, build a pathway, configure quizzes, assign teachers, publish a
version, and understand the member experience.
