Pastor · Missionary · Penang, Malaysia

You follow Jesus.Now make disciples who make disciples.

I train pastors, leaders and everyday believers to disciple others with simple tools that multiply — in six languages, across Malaysia and Southeast Asia.

01The gap

Most believers have never discipled anyone.

Ask a room of Christians how many call themselves believers, and almost every hand goes up. Ask how many have personally discipled another believer, and almost every hand goes down.

It is not that they do not love Jesus. It is that nobody ever showed them how, with tools simple enough to pass on the same week.

That gap is not a lack of faith. It is a lack of training. What I exist to fix

02Who I help

One of these is probably you.

03How I work

Model. Assist. Watch. Leave.

The same four steps Jesus used with his disciples. My goal is always to work myself out of a job, so what you learn keeps going without me.

  1. ModelI show you the tool while you watch. Nothing complicated — every tool fits on one page.
  2. AssistYou try it and I help. We practise together until it stops feeling awkward.
  3. WatchYou lead and I watch. I give you honest feedback, and we pray together.
  4. LeaveYou do it without me, and train someone else. That is when it starts to multiply.

04Fruit from the field

Real people. Real villages. Real churches.

Every story below is drawn from my monthly mission reports, 2025–2026. First names only, shared with permission.

  • Joyce

    Kota Bahru, Kelantan

    Trained online in the Mandarin Disciple Class. Sent to Kelantan in December 2025. Five months later she opened her home. In one weekend her uncle Hock came to Christ, then Jessie and her son Garry. Her living room is now a Friday-night home church of ten.

    From online trainee to home-church leader in five months.

  • Zamri

    Kampar, Perak

    A faithful brother in a small town. Today he leads seven leaders. Each of them has started a disciple group in their own village.

    Seven leaders. Seven villages. One faithful brother.

  • Pastor Kassim

    Ulu Kampar, Perak

    He came to one Zúme Training class. He went home and made it his church's Wednesday-night discipleship curriculum. New leaders are rising in his congregation of thirty.

    One pastor. One church. A new culture of discipleship.

06My story, in short

I was a believer for years before anyone showed me how to make a disciple.

I am Jony Leong, a pastor and missionary from Penang. In 2024 my wife Soojin and I were commissioned with Team Expansion to serve Malaysia and Southeast Asia. Since then we have trained hundreds of ordinary believers in six languages, and watched groups start in living rooms, cafés, villages and church halls.

I am not here to tell you your church is doing it wrong. Churches are my partners. I am here to hand you simple tools that work, and to walk with you until they multiply without me.
