Raising Spiritual Champions: Nurturing Your Child’s Heart, Mind, and Soul

By George Barna

 

Section ONE - The Importance of Children

Section TWO - The Four Principles of a Disciple

Section THREE - Families and Churches in Partnership

 

Section Two - The Four Practices of a Disciple

  1. Making a life-defining commitment to be a disciple of Jesus
  • Accepting the biblical principles and commands that lead to becoming a disciple
  • Adopting the lifestyle of a disciple - obedience through application of beliefs
  • Inviting personal accountability and stability - through assessing what matters, reinforcing growth, and celebrating disciplehood
  •  

    Chapter 4 - Disciple-Making Practice #1

    • Being a genuine disciple starts with obedience.
  • Why obey His teachings? Because He has provided them so that we may flourish in life.
  • Obedience therefore demands knowledge of Scripture
  • A different way of describing a disciple is someone who thinks like Jesus, which enables them to act like Jesus, producing someone who therefore lives like Jesus.
  • Spiritual Commitments:
    • Serving Christ
  • Building a solid relationship
  • Investing personal resources
  • Implementing a solid plan
  • Using proven practices
  •  

    Chapter 5 - Disciple-Making Practice #2

    • Biblically speaking, discipling a child is meant to be done by the child’s parents
    • How WORLDVIEW develops
      • Experimental process
  • Imitating their parents
    • List of DIFFERENT/COMPETING worldviews…
      • 94% of adults have a syncretistic worldview - a blending of views from two or more of the comprehensive worldview systems

     

    Chapter 6 - Disciple-Making Practice #3

    • An equally important undertaking is to promote the fledgling disciple fully, and passionately integrating those beliefs into a Christlike lifestyle.
      • The expansive impact of those attributes is an example of why discipling someone is not a quick process.
    • Spiritual fruit begins with evidence of personal transformation

     

    Chapter 7 - Disciple-Making Practice #4

    • Accountability system
  • Find a spiritual mentor
  • Must be taught the importance of consistent SELF-EVALUATION
  • Introduce young followers to the still, small voice of the Lord…
  • Measurement tools
    • Worldview Assessments Spiritual Gifts
  • Personal Strengths Personality Attributes
  • Spiritual Growth and Maturity
