This is one complete discipleship solution that can be used for everyone in your church. The curriculum is scalable for all-size churches and expansive enough to be used by itself or as a DIY tool for developing your own curriculum. However, be forewarned; there is no upper limit to the cost because there are so many interconnect materials you can purchase.
