Developing a Disciple Making Culture - Dhati Lewis, Friday, May 15, 2026

Join us on Firday, May 15, 2026 as we explore disciplemaking with Dhati Lewis!  We confuse discipleship with mentorship by reducing life-on-life discipleship to a once a week meeting at Starbucks where we exchange information about life and work and relationships. Discipleship has become a buzzword in evangelical circles, but for many of us we do not have a comprehensive plan to actually make disciples. Come learn how to develop and defend a culture of discipleship in the local church that is gospel-centered and communally based.

Dhati Lewis Bio

Dhati Lewis is the founding pastor of Blueprint Church in Atlanta, Georgia and the President and Founder of MyBLVD. He was born and raised in California and later moved to Texas where he completed his undergraduate studies from the University of North Texas. He later earned his master’s degree from Dallas Theological Seminary and his Doctorate of Ministry in Great Commission Mobilization from Southeastern Baptist Theological Seminary.

During his time in Texas, he started a college ministry, served as a chaplain to UNTs football team, coached high-school football, became a college pastor, and eventually planted a church. In all these years of ministry, Dhati became increasingly burdened to see healthy disciple-making churches in the city. This burden grew until the Lord gave Dhati a clear vision to plant a church-planting church in Atlanta, Georgia. In 2009, Dhati, along with twenty-five others, moved to Atlanta with the goal to become the last generation of believers who have to leave the urban context in search of sound discipleship.

Dhati is is most passionate about making disciples, equipping urban leaders, and loving his family. On any given day you might find Dhati changing a plan, coaching his kids in basketball, or strategizing on a whiteboard. Dhati has seven beautiful children and is married to Angie, a discerning woman who empowers and encourages him to live fully in his identity in Christ. He is the author of both the Bible Study and book, Among Wolves: Disciple Making in the City and Advocates: The Narrow Path to Racial Reconciliation.
