He continues studying three simple practices Jesus modeled throughout the Gospels–that can help you build a more resilient faith- and develop a closer walk with Jesus.Main Points Introduction: How can we address the discipleship deficit? I. The problem There is a need for discipleship II. The invitation of Jesus Jesus invites us to a life of abundance and purpose. III. We must come to Jesus and learn from Him if we are to experience the life He promises We must take His Yoke and learn from Him. IV. Coming to Jesus is an event and a lifelong process of learning to follow His example and His teaching The event = salvation - John 3:16 The process = discipleship - Matthew 4:19 The person = the path - John 14:6 V. Jesus practiced “the way” of living in dependency on the Spirit and submission to the Father He came Before God He did life In Community He was On Mission 24/7 VI. Jesus taught His disciples what was required to continually experience the supernatural life He gave them Abiding in Christ - John 15:1-11 Loving each other - John 15:12-17 Witnessing to the world - Matthew 28:18-20 VII. Until we grasp “the heart of God” and the why of discipleship, we will be destined to methods and programs that lead to discouragement, legalism, or self-righteousness. Because of what Jesus did we can: know Him, love Him and serve Him.
