How to get started
The first step in discipleship is to be a disciple.
- I am deeply indebted to two women who have invested me a great deal.
- A large part of what I have passed on to women today is what I have learned from them.
- In which woman you see the spiritual vitality and radiant beauty of Jesus Christ abundant.
- In the most different aspects of your life?Who do you want to imitate (1 Corinthians 11.
- 1; Philippians 3.
- 17)?Invite her to tea and tell her the desire of your heart.
- See if she wants to.
- The first woman I asked told me she couldn’t do that.
- It is ok? Keep trying.
- Discipline involves the assumption of relational risks.
Who are you in Christ? If you want to dig deeper, it’s perfect!Take the others with you. If you feel weak and needy, this is where God’s power is perfect. Even in your weaknesses, you can help other women learn what it means to trust god in their own weaknesses.
Do you love Him?Someone needs to listen to it, be close to it, see you accept it. Someone needs to take a closer look at how you live these beliefs in practice, and it takes more than a Sunday tomorrow to do so.
Discipline is not a matter of professional Christians who pass on their best practices to Christian fans. To be a disciple and to discipline others means to look at Jesus with such intensity and pleasure that you really begin to reflect the beauty of Christ in everyday life. Grace, Jesus becomes more precious, more satisfying, more exciting than anything else. And as you contemplate Christ, others will want to join you and you can start looking at him together. The most important way to make disciples of others is to enjoy Believe yourself in such an irresistible way that your pleasure becomes contagious.
Inviting others on the road to life
Does each individual follow a path to one of the two places?Life and death.
“On the path of justice is life, and in your career there is no death. (Proverbs 12:28)? There is a path that seems straight to man, but ends up on death paths. “(Proverbs 14. 12) ; see 16. 25)
As a disciple, we invite others to walk with us on the path of life, should we challenge them and push them along the way?Yes, but as companions of pilgrimage, not as someone who has already crossed the finish line (Philippians 3:14). -15); We must help them recognize, admire, appreciate, respond, and appreciate Christ, whose yoke is gentle and light burden (Matthew 11:30).
Love those whom He disciplines as Jesus loves you (Romans 15:7). Remember: it is not our mission to show others how sinful they are, but how beautiful Jesus is!Therefore, holding hands as you walk together in your common need for Jesus.
Discipleship doesn’t always need to be structured. Some people don’t work that way, but creating privacy and accountability systems will also help. Here are some suggestions from my own fan groups.
? We are committed to meeting for a specific period of time and with a specific frequency.
? We have moments to share our ‘biography bag’, full of significant symbols from our lives so far.
? We take the time to worship God together
? We study different biblical passages.
? We share prayer requests and pray for each other, keeping requests confidential.
? We learn a song or hymn and sing it together
? We read and discuss a book.
? We memorize scriptures.
? We serve together
? We try to get to know each other’s families.
Obviously, it takes time. Will these tips work for you? Use them like yours.
