Hearers Become Doers
Great Start for a Good Day! |
Such a compelling and worthwhile statement, but not so simple to translate into our daily lives. Often I muse over what I have read in scripture or heard from the pulpit and wonder how much gets translated into my daily system of being alive.
Our church's short statement of disciple-making is right on, but there exists the indicting question, "how can we do this?"
Francis Chan and David Platt have an interesting conversation about disciples making disciples. As you watch the following video, you may find your mind and emotions going in unexpected directions.
Quick and easy answers of "how to do this" don't appear in this video, but it certainly gives us some interesting, and perhaps indicting topics to pursue.
So What is the Plan?
We are going to divide this process into the following main categories.
- What is a disciple?
- What is the Message?
- The Reality of the Urgency
- Building Bridges that go Somewhere
- Christianity and Culture
- Good News Needs Telling
Please understand this; each of these topics is NOT meant to be a theological or apologetic discourse. We are not theologians - just tellers! This site is meant to simply prime the pump to enable users to investigate scriptures more deeply as we continue our journey into discipleship.
An excellent method of using this website is to do so with notebook and Bible in hand. As you watch and read, write any notes you wish, but also record your reactions to the videos and text. Most importantly, look up any scripture references and read them from whatever translation you are using.
