In this episode of Starting Place, we dive into the spiritual practice of disciplemaking and why it’s central to living as followers of Jesus. Drawing from Matthew 28:19-20, we explore the “discipleship crisis” in today’s Church, discuss key challenges like biblical illiteracy and disembodied discipleship, and offer practical steps for becoming a disciple who makes disciples.

Key Takeaways:

1. Discipleship is meant to happen in the context of relationships, not just through consuming content.
2. Disciplemaking involves content (God’s Word), context (relationships), and consistency (regular, intentional meetings).
3. The Great Commission calls us to multiplication—helping others grow so they can disciple someone else.

Challenge:
Pray and ask God to show you one step you can take toward disciplemaking. Talk about it with a friend or loved one, and consider starting with one person who can grow alongside you in faith.
