After years of working and re-working various means and methods of making disciple makers at my previous church in Oakland, I have been graciously invited to invest some of those learnings to help create a greater disciple-making culture at Hope Church.
So, we are currently at the stage in this journey where we are piloting a tool that will equip the people of Hope Church to make disciples that make disciples.
Our leaders are loving using the tool, and the people who are being discipled are responding well to the process.
We are also talking about making disciple-making a primary emphasis of what we teach, train, and coach the church planters connected to Hope Church and the church planters we desire to raise out of Hope Church.
Tonight, I piloted the disciple-making tool with a young man from Hope Church (who recently moved from the Bay Area to Las Vegas as well!) who is hungry! The Scriptures were read. The Holy Spirit convicted. Steps of obedience were identified. And, he couldn’t be more excited about going on this disciple-making journey with me! I’m so thankful for this privilege and honor!
I am convinced, nothing puts you more on the front row to the activity of God than intentionally making disciples who make disciples.
God is up to something very special at Hope Church (specifically as it relates to disciple-making), and I am very blessed to be here to be a part of it!
