Deliberate Discipleship Series
Jesus' call to "make disciples,… teaching them to obey all that He taught" is an elegant, simple, and unstoppable plan if only we Christians pursued it deliberately. When we do, we realize the brilliance of His plan and the exhilaration of His charge.

Transparency. Is there anything that we can talk about that will help you enjoy fellowship in the light? If you need to help via reproof:
QTs. Did anything that you’ve experienced in a QT with God encourage you recently? Tell me about it. How did that invite even more work of the Spirit in and through you?

If you put that into practice, what difference will that make in you? How will that invite even more work of the Holy Spirit in you?
Outreach. Has God put someone on your heart to love? Tell me about it. Who can you love next? What might be a new way to reach them? Have you had any success disrupting someone with an invitation lately? Tell me about it. How did that invite even more work of the Spirit in and through you?
