A disciple follows Jesus, becomes like Jesus, and helps others follow Jesus. Disciple-making is not a program of the church; it is the calling of every follower of Jesus.

Jesus prepares His disciples to continue His mission by showing them how to serve, surrender, and follow Him faithfully—even when following is costly.

Because the King is coming again, disciple-makers live ready every day.

The true disciple submits to Christ’s authority rather than challenging it.

Every person must decide how they will respond to the King

Disciple-makers grow by humbly depending on Jesus instead of themselves.

Faith grows not by knowing more, but by obeying Jesus one step at a time.

Disciple-makers faithfully steward everything God entrusts to them because they are living for eternal rewards rather than temporary riches.

Disciple-makers pursue lost people because they share the heart of the Father, who relentlessly seeks, lovingly restores, and joyfully celebrates the lost. Sermon Notes and small group discussion questions can be downloaded at: https://bit.ly/4p6IVEN

Following Jesus requires surrendering our pride, our priorities, and ultimately our very lives.
