Prior to Pastor John MacArthur going home to be with the Lord, Jonny Ardavanis sat down with Pastor John as he breaks down the biblical meaning of discipleship and why it's essential for every Christian. Jesus commanded us to "make disciples," not just converts—but what does that really mean?

Key Topics Covered:

• The true definition of a disciple (mathetes - a lifelong learner)

• Why discipleship is more than a prayer or church attendance

• How to build Christ-centered friendships that last a lifetime

• The difference between making converts and making disciples

• Practical steps to find someone to disciple you

• How to start discipling others in your church

Main Takeaways:

✓ Discipleship is a friendship with a spiritual core

✓ It involves teaching believers to observe all of Christ's commands

✓ True discipleship creates lifelong relationships and accountability

✓ Find someone who knows more than you AND someone who knows less

✓ The local church is essential for biblical discipleship

Pastor MacArthur emphasizes that discipleship isn't just a program—it's walking through life with someone, applying God's Word together, and creating deep spiritual friendships that accumulate over a lifetime.

Perfect for: Christians seeking spiritual growth, church leaders, small group leaders, new believers, and anyone wanting to understand the Great Commission better.
