HOW IT WORKS
Three Simple Steps to Start a Group
You don't need to be a pastor, theologian, or Bible scholar. If you can gather a few people and press play, you can do this.
CHOOSE YOUR PATH
Which Type of Group Fits You?
Both paths are free, simple, and designed to multiply. Pick the one that resonates with you — you can always do both.
Start a Discipleship Group in your home using a free app (no experience needed)
The MVP app is a theologian-approved tool that guides anyone—even brand-new believers—through a simple path to becoming more like Christ.
Short teachings. Group discussions. Real-life challenges that build real faith.
By the end, you won’t just know more—you’ll have taken real steps of faith.
Those steps are how Scripture shows faithfulness is proven, and how God begins opening doors and revealing the next steps of your individual calling.
Gather
Invite 2–10 people — friends, family, coworkers, neighbors.
Anyone who’s open to learning about Jesus can join.
No preaching, no prep, no experience needed.
Press Play
Open the free app and play the short Bible-based lesson.
The app does all the teaching for you.
You simply listen (or read out loud), discuss, and follow the discussion and challenge questions.
Grow & Multiply
Watch your group grow stronger through simple obedience.
New believers begin leading quickly, and your group can naturally multiply into more groups — just like the early church.

Bible Listening Group
Through a collaborative effort from the American Bible Society and partnering ministries, the End-to-End Program is igniting a global movement — transforming lives through God’s Word since 1998 and now active in over 60 countries, reaching more than 20 million people and counting.
As people faithfully engage with God’s Word, clarity, obedience, and calling naturally begin to unfold.
Invite or Share
Show a gospel film like The JESUS Film or share your personal testimony to introduce people to Jesus and the hope you’ve found in Him. Afterward, invite them to join your Bible Listening Group, where they can continue discovering who Jesus is and what His Word says.
Listen to the Bible
Gather in small groups to listen to the New Testament (John though Revelation).
Each meeting ends with three simple questions:
1. What was the story about?
2. How did God speak to you?
3. What are you going to do about it?
Get a Free Bible
Those who finish listening to the New Testament receive their very own printed Bible — a special gift sponsored by the American Bible Society. It’s a powerful moment that marks their next step in growing deeper with God’s Word.
Join a Local Church
Help new believers connect with a nearby church where they can grow in community and faith.
If there isn’t one nearby, they can start a new group using the MVP App, which serves as a virtual pastor for their first year — simply gather together, press play, and grow in God’s Word week by week.

How to Start Your First Group
In Your Own Home
Step 1: Share Your Testimony
Share your story with someone who’s walking through the same struggles you faced.Did you know the word “testimony” in Hebrew (עֵדוּת, edut) means “God will do it again”?
When you share what God did for you, you’re inviting His power to do it again in someone else’s life.
Step 2: Invite Them to Your Group
Ask them to join you each week — just a simple time of reading, watching, and talking about what God is doing.
You don’t need to preach. Just gather, pray, and grow together.
Step 3: Multiply
Your goal isn’t to just lead a group — it’s to raise group makers.
Help each person use their story so God can “do it again” through them.
When every disciple becomes a group maker, the world can be reached from living rooms everywhere.

Vision For The Future... ⬇︎
Since the whole world can’t fit inside all the church buildings, we need people like you to start discipleship groups everywhere. To truly fulfill the Great Commission, these groups must multiply and must be tracked so we can reach every place on Earth.
Our goal is to see a discipleship group or church in every city/village across the globe. Please use the following form to update us on where your group is and any testimonies you have in the future. Use the same link for new registrations and updates.
