D-Groups are small discipleship groups designed to help believers grow deeper in their relationship with Jesus and learn to live a lifestyle of making disciples. Following the D-Life model, D-Groups typically consist of 3–8 people who meet regularly to read and discuss Scripture, pray together, encourage one another, and hold one another accountable. The goal is more than simply gaining biblical knowledge—it is growing as a disciple of Jesus who is equipped to help others follow Him.

D-Groups are intentionally smaller than our regular Groups. This creates space for deeper relationships, greater accountability, honest conversation, and spiritual growth. Because of this, D-Groups may not always be open to new members once they are established.

At Thelma, we believe disciple-making is not simply another program of the church—it is part of the everyday life of every follower of Jesus. D-Groups help us intentionally live out Jesus’ command to make disciples who make disciples.
