Do You Feel Inadequate for Discipleship?
You are not alone! Many hold back from mentoring new Christians because they feel:
Uneducated
They didn’t go to Bible college.
Inexperienced
They don’t know where to start.
Unprepared
They lack the trusted resources.
Introducing Establish
Ethnos Canada has developed a new foundational Bible teaching resource, called Establish, which focuses on discipling strategy. This new resource will establish you more deeply in Christ and the Word of God, while equipping you to make disciples using your unique, God-given gifts.
No Seminary Required
Establish walks you through God's Word in the same way that God revealed Himself to humanity — starting "In the beginning..." with Genesis. It focuses on the character of God and His merciful dealings with humanity, walking through the redemptive story of Scripture using words and illustrations that are easy to understand.
No Experience Required
Those with years of overseas discipling experience have partnered with Indigenous and western church leaders to develop these resources. They provide a proven pathway for everyday believers to make disciples who can also make disciples, using their unique God-given gifts.
No Library Required
With just your Bible and the Establish resources, you can easily disciple new Christians from Genesis to Revelation, from infancy to maturity.
Why Use Establish?
The Establish resources and strategy empower disciple-making movements.
- Establish focuses your attention on who God is through the grand story of Scripture, first to establish you in Christ and then to empower you to make disciples.
- Teaching takes place in a relational manner.
- Truth is shared through the story of the Bible beginning in Genesis.
- Truth is shared visually using pictures, videos, graphics, and object lessons.
- Truth is presented in everyday English.
- Participation is fostered so learners quickly become disciplers, according to their gifts, as they are ready.
- Disciples are equipped and eager to make more disciples.
The History of Establish
Since 1942, Ethnos has been planting churches in Indigenous communities worldwide. The Establish strategy and resources are the fruit of decades of ministry experience, resulting in an easy-to-use resource that lays the foundations of God's character and the redemptive journey from Genesis to Revelation.
Dave and Judy Wright invested twenty years as church planters among an Unreached People Group in Papua New Guinea. In 2015 they were invited by a Christian Cree Elder to repurpose their overseas discipling resources for the Canadian Church. With input from many church leaders, including Indigenous believers, the Establish resources were developed, and have proven to empower everyday believers for discipleship.
Join a growing movement as you use this time-tested strategy and resource to disciple new Christians!

In this heartfelt endorsement, Chris and Marla Toth passionately share their deep love for Establish—a transformative discipleship resource from Ethnos Canada designed specifically for everyday believers like you, who burn with a heart for discipleship and evangelism.
