In SIM’s “Core Values,” we have committed ourselves to “practice the giving and receiving of discipleship” as an enduring discipline. Liz McGregor learned the importance of this when local and expatriate Christians intentionally mentored her years ago when she was working in Nigeria. She explains, “Discipleship is not a grand new idea. My prayer is simply that it will very naturally become a significant part of who we are and of everything we do as a mission.”
