Discipleship Quads

A Discipleship Quad helps you grow in friendship with three others by joining a community that provides you with support, encouragement, and gentle accountability. Throughout the process, you will discover the beauty of the Catholic faith in a comprehensive and practical way by reflecting on Scripture and the Catechism. You will experience a more intimate relationship with Jesus as he equips you, through the power of the Holy Spirit, to live boldly as his disciple.

I’ve never seen a resource that is so beautifully Catholic that helped me live my Catholicism in every aspect of my life… from sacraments to community to everything!

The other three men were friends who had known each other for years. But literally after we’d been meeting for just a few weeks, I think all of them were saying, “Wow. We’re talking about important things. We’re sharing important things. We’re learning more about each other than we have ever known.”

—Paul M., Steubenville, OH

The books are Bible based, are true to Catholic teaching, and have given me measurable steps to rely on.

—Valerie N., Orange, CA

Since starting the Discipleship Quad, my relationship with Jesus Christ has grown. I have a better understanding of what really happens during Mass and what God wants from us. It has helped me so much, a true blessing from God.

—Jesus M., Biloxi, MS

I was nervous before I started about the time commitment. I’ve now done two full Quads and my husband’s done two full Quads. So we actually have gone through this process twice, we loved it so much. You find the time for things you love.
