Orphan Age |
3.11.24 |
|
In America, we have a lot of churches, but not enough disciples making disciples. Our churches are orphanages for new believers, and if we’re really following Jesus, we’ll put away our fears about what it means to disciple someone else and obey His calling to just go out and do it.

We learn by example. When we see and hear someone else, and they model a behavior, then we’re better able to do the same thing ourselves. That’s what discipleship is: seeing and hearing what it means to follow Jesus, living it out ourselves, then turning around and being an example to other people so both our lives and their lives can glorify God.

God commissioned us to make disciples — and that includes within our own families. We may have had a godly example in our own parents, or we may be setting a brand-new example for the next generation. The beautiful thing about God’s Church is there are plenty of Christ-followers who are ready and willing to pour into other believers, and to model what it means to form a legacy that reaches far beyond themselves.

God used a handful of people to establish His Church and, in doing so, to reach the entire world. More than 2000 years later, the impact that those obedient disciples of Jesus made on generations of Christians who followed has set a path for us to continue the work of the Gospel. May we strive to emulate their commitment and submission to bring all people to the saving knowledge of Christ!

If you’ve ever been a film junkie, a sports enthusiast, or an avid supporter of a musician or band, you know that there’s a difference between being a “fan” and being a “follower”. We can all be fans of Jesus without ever actually obeying what He told us to do in order to follow Him. We can choose to be Christians who believe for the sake of salvation and continue to go about life as we please, or we can accept the exciting and fulfilling invitation Jesus extends for us to follow Him.

There are basic — but essential — concepts to which the Church needs to hold fast in order for it to stay healthy and continue to grow. Discipleship, servant leadership, worship, community, and evangelism are just some of the key tenets of church health. Our ultimate purpose is to glorify God by spreading the Gospel and increasing His Church.

Millstones To Milestones |
11.6.23 |
|
Our lives are marked by millstones and milestones. Millstones are the times of tragedy, trial, and tough circumstances; milestones are the monumental moments that we celebrate. Part of the job of the Church is to help us turn our millstones into milestones so we can help others do the same — that’s the process of discipleship.

Jesus told His disciples that if they followed Him, He would make them fishers of men. If you and I follow Jesus, we’d better do so with the expectation that we, like the disciples, will also be fishing for men, because of the work that God’s doing in us!

We’ll never achieve perfection in this life — but perfection isn’t the point. The point is that we strive to obey God, and that we keep trying even when we fail. The more we persevere in our obedience to Him, the deeper both our faith in Him and our relationship with Him grow.

God’s design for His family is for each of us to be growing with the help of another — while also helping others to grow. He emphasizes the necessity of teaching His Word to our children, and that includes those in both physical and spiritual infancy. When we lead another person to Christ, let’s not abandon them to figure out the discipleship journey on their own; let’s take them by the hand and help to grow disciples who make disciples.

Milk is the key to a baby’s physical growth — and a baby Christian’s spiritual growth is no different. New believers need someone to feed them, teach them, and support them as they grow. Churches should consistently be filled with a healthy mix of new Christians and those who help them mature to the point of discipling others.

Jesus taught His disciples that to follow Him is to become fishers of men. And the same holds true for us today! It’s easy to forget that God’s given us the privilege of sharing the good news of His salvation with others, but if we’re truly following Jesus, we’ll continually be “catching fish” as we go.
