Disciple Making

Jesus models impacting all, influencing many, and investing in a few. Today, we tend to value impacting all and influencing many. We like writing big checks and seeing big crowds. It feels more significant because it affects more people, at least initially. It requires less transparency and lower commitment. However, the best investments are small contributions to the same asset on a consistent basis that compound over time. Disciple making is not just about introducing people to Jesus. It is about helping them take their next step in following Jesus. We baptize them and teach them to obey. Impacting all and influencing many are important, as Jesus modeled for us. But the most important priority, the Great Commission, is to make disciples how Jesus made disciples. There is no greater job, and there is no greater joy.
