The Need For Mature Disciples
Manage episode 494447004 series 3666871
In the book Organic Disciples, Kevin Harney provides seven markers of Organic Discipleship. All of the markers were found in the life of Jesus. He required His disciples to live them as well, and these markers can be used to help measure our spiritual maturity. Jesus got His disciples involved in His ministry from the beginning of their time with Him. This helped prevent them from falling victim to the alluring and pervasive temptation to be consumers. Discipleship, however, is not exclusive to the Kingdom of God. In fact, if we do not disciple people, the culture will. This will only lead to more consumerism.
In this episode, we will discuss having a new scorecard for development. This scorecard does not measure budgets, buildings and butts. Yes, they matter, but they do not define our effectiveness or growth as mature disciples.
