Download or read book Gospel Discipleship Participant Guide written by Michelle J. Morris and published by Abingdon Press. This book was released on 2020-03-31 with total page 131 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: There was a time when discipleship was taken for granted. It was assumed that people could be persuaded to believe and that each person would step into the path that took them to Jesus. That assumption is no longer valid. As early as the Gospels, Jesus and his biographers recognize that each person brings experience to the journey, which travels through different times and places. The discipleship path for each individual disciple is assessed and determined through this Gospel Discipleship Participant Guide while the Gospel Discipleship Congregation Guide serves as the implementation guide for church leaders. It also assesses the discipleship path for the congregation as a whole. By understanding what type of disciple you are, participants in Gospel Discipleship can clarify the path they need to walk. Some people love to go on mission trips; some people really thrive learning from a great teacher; some people connect to God through painting and music; and some people just want to have a cup of coffee and talk about life and eventually get around to talking about Jesus. Participants in Gospel Discipleship can be set free from the guilt of not feeling like a "real" disciple because they don't feel called to experience the journey the same way as everyone else. Instead, participants can become the disciple Jesus wants them to be. They can spend their valuable time and energy living and walking on the path where Jesus is calling them to follow.

Men in thousands of churches across the world know there is more to faith than just attending church — they know there is the potential to walk in Christ’s image, live in Christ’s image, and work to spread Christ’s word. But the one big question they are all asking is how? The Spirit of God is compelling them to seek the answer. This book is the gateway to answering that question. The authors spent years struggling to build a life of meaning before realizing their depravity and asking the questions: “What does it mean to be a godly man, and how can I become one?” The Spirit answered by sending men into their lives to disciple them, not with disdain or judgment, but with love and compassion, a gospel-centered focus. These men walked alongside them in the messiness of life, helping them to apply Biblical truths and spiritual disciplines in a challenging world. From their own personal journeys, out of the abyss, the authors have written this book. Here you will learn to: • BUILD a one-on-one relationship • CREATE a culture of men who support each other • LOOK TO CHRIST and find what obstacles are blocking you • TRANSFORM your life seeing the Gospel advance through the discipling of other men. Real-Life Discipleship: The Ordinary Man’s Guide to Disciple-Making offers a gateway from confusion to clarity, from struggle to transformation.

Book excerpt: Do you want your church to be a disciple-making church, but aren't sure how to get there? Are you struggling to come up with a church-wide strategy for making disciples? In Maximum Discipleship in the Church, veteran pastor and leadership coach, Dr. Randy Wollf, helps church leaders understand and grow 11 essential elements that will move their churches toward greater disciple-making effectiveness. In the pages of this book, you will discover: How the culture of a church can set the stage for discipleship to thrive. Why focusing on one discipleship approach is not enough to make disciples in a maximum way. How you can strengthen each of the 11 essential disciple-making elements and take your church to the next level in making disciples. The book comes with access to the online Church Discipleship Assessment, a tool that helps you measure your church's effectiveness in the 11 disciple-making areas. Every chapter has reflection/discussion questions that will help you and your leadership team identify and apply key insights from the assessment and the book. Imagine that discipleship in your church is like a grape vine. Of course, we want our churches to bear fruit like seeing people accept Christ and grow in him. Yet, the growth of the vine and its ability to produce fruit is dependent on at least four things: water, sunlight, good soil, and a supportive structure. As we think about making disciples in the church, it's imperative that we recognize the Holy Spirit's role. He is the One who draws people to Christ and helps them grown in him. He provides water and sunlight to make discipleship flourish in our churches. Unless God grows the plant, our efforts are pointless. Even though God ultimately causes discipleship to thrive in our church, He has chosen to partner with us in this great, vine-growing venture. One of the ways that we can participate is to make sure that the soil has the right nutrients to support the growth of the vine. The first five disciple-making elements relate to your church's culture - the heart of your church. The five church cultural factors are like nutrients in the soil. They provide what discipleship needs to thrive in your church. Of course, growing a vine requires more than just the right soil. You also need to have appropriate structures like a trellis that support the vine's growth. That's where the remaining six discipleship elements come in. The church is God's primary way of making disciples, but only if we grow certain qualities and strengthen structures that will support optimal disciple-making. If you are longing to see your church make more and deeper disciples of Jesus, Maximum Discipleship in the Church is for you!
