JOURNEY

TheNavigators
story begins in 1933 with Dawson Trotman, a
young man whose passion was teaching
the principles of discipleship “to reliable
men who will also be qualified to teach
others” (2 Timothy 2:2).

When a sailor Daws was discipling asked
him to help a shipmate grow, Daws
responded, “You teach him!” The two new
disciples met with others, who met with
others, and eventually 125 men on their ship
were following Jesus. By 1945, thousands of
sailors around the world were involved.

As those sailors returned to civilian life, the
Navigator vision of Life-to-Life® discipleship
spread to college campuses, churches,
neighborhoods, and beyond. In 1949, The
Navigators first overseas missionary left for
China; Navigators now serve in more than
100 countries. Dawson’s mission lives on:
To know Christ, make Him known, and
2 help others do the same®.

NEVER DO ANYTHING SOMEONE ELSE CAN OR
WILL DO WHEN THERE IS SO MUCH OTHERS
CANNOT OR WILL NOT DO.
