A Disciple-Making Encourager
Every disciple benefits from a cheerleader, challenger, and guide–from brand new Christian to the mature disciple. I tend to prefer the name, Encourager.
Movement: Discipleship Evidence
Movement is a natural evidence of disciple progress taking place. Without movement, one might conclude that the disciple is either sick or dead.
Online Discipling When Live Is Impossible
Sometimes the leader has to travel or the disciple is sick. My question in this day of technology is why cancel? Why not consider online discipling?
Difficult People to Disciple
Discipling requires relationships, and relationships can be messy. That means some efforts to disciple will be with difficult people. Don’t give up.

Caution for Disciple-Making
Whose disciples are you making? This is a serious question demanding caution and a serious response. There are only 2 acceptable answers: self and Jesus.
Teaching Them to Observe
The essence of being a disciple of Jesus is observing everything he commanded. The essence of being a disciple-maker is teaching them to observe.
No Engagement = No Disciple-making
Engagement is all about care. Jesus cared for his disciples & challenged them/us to love one another. He modeled agape love beyond culture in life & death.

Two encounters are critical. First, the leader encounters God in His Word and is changed. Second, the leader guides the group to have a life-changing encounter.
In John 13:34-35, three times Jesus said, “Love one another.” Your group is the ideal place to practice and launch the kind of love for one another that shows the world that we are His disciples.
