“The discipling process seeks to deliver people, develop them, and deploy them into the harvest field. Making disciples is the only way to develop healthy Christians who reproduce themselves in their own home area.”

The Disciple Making Church
It is simple.
The church is to make disciples. If it isn’t making disciples, it is failing.
“But we have a great Awana program”
If it isn’t making disciples, it is failing. F-
“But we have great recovery programs.”
If it isn’t making disciples, it is failing. F-
“But we have the best music and worship in our town.”
If it isn’t contributing to making disciples, it is failing. F-
“But we have great preaching and teaching at our church.”

All these things are great and MAY objectively help in the making of disciples but it’s really quite simple.
The church is to make disciples. If these things don’t help us do that, they may be keeping us from doing THE thing we are supposed to be doing—-loving one another so well that we are making disciples.
Our purpose is to deliver, develop and deploy disciples so that the world is changed for the glory of the King and His Kingdom.
If we aren’t doing that, what are we doing?
