Fast tracks will equip you with practical ways to engage in life-to-life discipleship in the Latin community. How fast? 30 minutes of content and then 30 minutes of conversation. You’ll learn about discipleship in a specific context and then talk with others around your table about what it would look like to implement what you have just heard. It’s so fast, you get to do it twice. So choose two fast-tracks about discipleship you are most interested in learning.
