"Great article! Probably could have added confession to the list of signs of an authentic Christian in the latest blog post - http://meettheneed.org/blog/2021/08/proving-christians-actually-know-god/"
"What if tradition has become the filter through which interpretation of the text and formation of theology now passes? These 3 are not independent but interdependent and possibly sequential - beginning with traditions (church-as-we-know-it)…"
"Great and critical discussion, brothers! Love walking alongside the two of you on our shared, God-given mission."
"Gary - Thank you for your insights and encouragement. There's a lot to digest in what you shared but it all strikes me as truth and inspired. Miss seeing you, brother. Hope and pray all's well with you and your family."

"Over 80 views: only one comment.
This post clearly calls for reimagining Discipleship and Evangelism.
I’m beginning to wonder if Christian leaders really want to “reimaginative.”"
"AMEN! SEVEN TIME SEVENTY!
As a member of the laity, my observations include:
Control taking the place of leadering;
Physical structures being of overriding concern;
More effort spent on programs supposed to "reach out" than on…"
We Look More Like the Church BC than AD
Why did Jesus come when He did? Theories abound, but the state of the Church was likely, at least in part, behind God’s timing. Religious practices and teachings had gotten far off course, fueled by impure motives and metrics – and leading to cynicism among non-believers and an improper understanding of God among believers. Jesus came to blow up those misconceptions and set the record straight – about who God is and what He expects of His followers. Jesus reserved His harshest words and…See More

Why Discipleship is the Ultimate Church Growth Model
Not all church growth is healthy growth. Unhealthy growth attracts people from other churches by catering more to them and expecting less of them. Healthy, exponential growth involves sending those who’ve experienced genuine life change out into the community to demonstrate and share the love of Jesus Christ with those hopeless and hurting.

External Factors Keeping Churches From Discipling
In addition to the internal impediments to discipleship we discussed last week, there are cultural norms making it difficult for churches in America to build disciples. Even if pastors were fully committed to implementing personalized, intensive discipleship programs, they would encounter three significant attitudinal roadblocks pervading the…

Maximize Kingdom, Community and Church Impact Through Discipleship
Jesus selected an odd cast of characters to be His disciples. If you were asked to pick a team of 12 people to change the course of history, I’m guessing you wouldn’t head straight to the local marina or IRS office looking for candidates. Yet that’s exactly what Jesus did. In fact, the Old Testament, New Testament and the annals of church history are riddled with stories of “ordinary people doing extraordinary things”. God gets all the glory when those least capable achieve the seemingly…

Internal Factors Keeping Churches from Discipling
Part 1 – Internal Factors
As we showed last week, discipleship expands the Kingdom, changes your community and grows your church. So why do only 1% of church leaders surveyed believe American churches are discipling well. Why wouldn’t more pastors emphasize discipleship and implement a discipleship track that goes well beyond sermons and small groups…
