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.
