Consulting
Bring DiscipleType to Your Church
Help your church discover how each member is uniquely wired to connect with God — and build a community that engages everyone.
Why DiscipleType?
Most churches unintentionally favor one or two spiritual styles — and the people who don't fit that mold quickly disengage. DiscipleType gives your community a shared language for discipleship, helping every believer feel seen, understood, engaged, and equipped to grow.
Dr. Derek Cooper has worked with churches and Christian organizations for more than 15 years, bringing the DiscipleType framework to congregations of all sizes and traditions. Whether you're a small group of 20 or a congregation of 2,000, DiscipleType can transform the way your community does discipleship.
How We Can Work Together
Church Workshops
A half-day or full-day workshop for your congregation. Participants take the assessment, learn about all 14 DiscipleTypes, and leave with a practical plan for deepening their spiritual life.
Small Group Training
Equip your small group leaders to facilitate DiscipleType conversations. Includes a leader guide, discussion materials, and a follow-up coaching call with Derek.
Keynote & Preaching
Derek is available to preach or deliver a keynote on spiritual diversity, Christian formation, and the DiscipleType framework at your church, conference, or retreat.
Bible Land Tours
Derek organizes church and school tours to the lands of the Bible. These immersive experiences deepen faith, enrich Scripture study, and bring your community together in a transformative way.
Leadership Cohorts
A multi-session cohort for pastors and ministry leaders who want to build a culture of spiritual formation in their church. Includes assessments, readings, and live sessions with Derek.
