"A church that does not make disciples has lost its identity"

It’s been said; “A church that does not make disciples has lost its identity.” I agree!

The Great Commission calls all Christians to make disciples. I’m sure you have heard Matthew 28:18-20 preached many times, and I’m glad that many have committed these verses to memory… but are we doing it? Or have we forgotten our calling?

I believe, if we are a church that is evangelising the lost, teaching the Scriptures, encouraging one another in prayer, and sharing the gospel with friends and family then the church will experience growth of some kind! Knowing this to be true… why would we not practise discipleship?

My hope and prayer this week is that we will become more aware of God’s calling on our lives and respond faithfully, by making more disciples (followers of Jesus) for His name’s sake.
In relation to this, here’s a few questions for you to ponder:

• Am I faithful in making disciples?
• If I were to disciple someone, would I know what to do?
• Who is available for me to disciple?
• Is my church faithful in making disciples?
• Does my church have a clear path of discipleship?
• Who in my church needs to be discipled?
  
  

The simple truth is that God is faithful, and no church makes disciples by accident. When we are faithful in making disciples, God will be faithful to bring the growth.

Join us this Sunday at 9:30am to worship God and encourage one another in our disciple making.

Blessings to you in the name of Jesus,

Rev. Tanya
