Introduction for Disciple-Makers

Dan Samms

Every new Christian and a whole lot of old ones need someone to lead them through the essentials of following Jesus right now.  The reality is that everyone should have someone(s) leading them to follow Jesus (become like Jesus) for life, and every follower of Jesus should be leading 1-3 other people to follow Jesus.  However, there is a specific and vital necessity to invest in new believers immediately to ensure they are equipped with the knowledge and practices to thrive in relationship with God.

Dan Samms

It is my concerted opinion that we have lost sight of some of the more profound aspects of discipleship.  In our effort to mass-produce Christians we have erected structures and developed systems with the best of intentions.  However, we have neglected to follow Christ into the deep shadows of our hearts.  He whom we celebrate with song and attendance has not been made Lord of our hearts, souls, minds, and strength.  This is due in large measure to our own fear and pride.   The cause is inconsequential as the cure is the same: discipleship.
