Episode 236: Remember Discipleship? Let’s Do It | EK Strawser

Discipleship is something Christians are talking about more.

 

It’s so important. But…what is it?

 

Today, author and pastor Eun (EK) Strawser helps understand what discipleship is as well as:

 

--How can we become a community that centers discipleship?

 

--How can we know if we are doing it “right”?

 

--How does parenting relate to discipleship?

 

| Highlights |

 

• “Discipleship means to imitate Jesus within the context of a community for the renewal of the local place around you.”
• “If discipleship is centered within a community, then that also means within a family.”
• “The discipleship of deficiency develops because people self-disqualify themselves all of the time. Jesus set out and said, ‘Every one of you who are making an intentional decision to imitate me within the context of community, you are a disciple maker. Go and make more.’ If that’s the call, then that should not be a leadership call. Making disciples should not be a criteria for leaders. It should be a baseline criteria for every congregant.”
