This non-profit organization was founded in August 2001 by a group of Christian men and women who have a vision for the life-changing impact that comes from establishing a "Follow Me" relationship with Christ.

It is an outgrowth of Wayne and Nina Fox's personal and professional ministry that began over 21 years ago in their church, Fellowship Bible Church North in Plano, Texas. Wayne was on the staff as an assistant pastor from 1986 to 2001 spending much of his pastoral role in small group ministries.

In 1990, Wayne was experiencing serious doubt and confusion about whether his "Christian walk" was really working. The question that plagued him was "why wasn't he seeing more change in his own life given his extensive theological education, and his commitment to ministry?" Afterall, he was supposed to be leading others in living the Christian life, but there was uncertainity about how it was working in his own life.

Out of this context, God lead Him to examine the book of Mark. At that time, he wasn't certain why. But, in retrospect, it was drawn to it because God came down to earth and spent three years pouring something into the lives of twelve men. And, at the end, He said, "Go make disciples of others in the same way I did you!!!"

God began to move in Wayne's heart. It was through this study that Wayne came to realize what was missing in his spiritual life. It was a relationship of "Following Christ" in a dynamic discipleship manner. Like the professional pastors of Christ's day, the focus in Christian ministry was "trying to make people become better" in their roles as spouses, parents, work professionals, etc. by studying, learning, applying and performing God's Word in their lives.

Wayne began to see that this had the process upside down. Christ's invitation was to "Follow Him"--that is our job. His job is "...to make us become fishers of men (people who will love and serve others sacrificing themselves on their behalf). This began a journey of Wayne and Nina seeing that the discipleship process was to engage people in what it means to follow Christ and get their focus off of trying to become.

This led to seeing people's hearts challenged to let go of control (one issue as a time) and learn to trust. As trust was formed in their relationship with Christ, the times of following Him even through trials and difficulties took on meaning allowing Him to expose the flesh they had been trusting in and let go further through repentance.

As one's heart is softened through continuing responses of trust and repentance, it becomes evident that God is in charge of leading each one through the circumstances of their life in a way that "He is making us become...a person that was drawing others to Himself (i.e. fishers of men)!!'

Out of this context of a personal spiritual crisis and the study of the Book of Mark, Wayne and Nina developed the Quantum L.E.A.P. (Living an Example Amidst Pressure) Discipleship materials and began using it more extensively in small groups. After eight years of such ministry at Fellowship Bible Church North, Wayne resigned his position. In 2001, they formed the non-profit organization, Quantum L.E.A.P. Discipleship, Inc. and began discipling men and women through this ministry. Their vision and hope is that this will become the central core of ministry to the lives of people as it was in the first century with the disciples birthing the church...restoring the focus of making disciples in the way Christ did.
