Making Disciples

Jump to What’s Happening at Crossroads

“Come, follow Me,” Jesus said, “and I will make you fishers of men.” (Matthew 4:19 BSB)

: the intentional journey to know, trust, and follow Jesus more deeply to become more like Him and to help others do the same.

3 Discipling Questions:

1. Who is my ?

Who has made a significant impact in my faith?

¹⁰ But you, Timothy, certainly know what I teach, and how I live, and what my purpose in life is. You know my faith, my patience, my love, and my endurance. ¹¹ You know how much persecution and suffering I have endured. You know all about how I was persecuted in Antioch, Iconium, and Lystra—but the Lord rescued me from all of it. (2 Timothy 3:10-11)

¹¹ Now these are the gifts Christ gave to the church: the apostles, the prophets, the evangelists, and the pastors and teachers. ¹² Their responsibility is to equip God’s people to do his work and build up the church, the body of Christ. (Ephesians 4:11-12)

2. Who is my ?

Disciple Making: Entering into relationships to help people know, trust and follow Jesus more deeply as they become more like him.

We become more like Jesus .

3. Who is my ?

⁷ In the same way, there is more joy in heaven over one lost sinner who repents and returns to God than over ninety-nine others who are righteous and haven’t strayed away! (Luke 15:7)

¹⁹ Even though I am a free man with no master, I have become a slave to all people to bring many to Christ. ²⁰ When I was with the Jews, I lived like a Jew to bring the Jews to Christ. When I was with those who follow the Jewish law, I too lived under that law. Even though I am not subject to the law, I did this so I could bring to Christ those who are under the law. ²¹ When I am with the Gentiles who do not follow the Jewish law, I too live apart from that law so I can bring them to Christ. But I do not ignore the law of God; I obey the law of Christ. ²² When I am with those who are weak, I share their weakness, for I want to bring the weak to Christ. Yes, I try to find common ground with everyone, doing everything I can to save some. (1 Corinthians 9:19-22)
