Disciple | Sermon Series Recap

, Teaching

Disciple(620x130)

We recently finished walking through a short four week sermon series called “Disciple.” Throughout this study we looked at how we’re to follow and learn from Jesus in every sphere of life – and help others to do the same. We were reminded of our new identity in Christ and the call on our lives to become more like Jesus.

To be a disciple is to be a part of God’s new people, be a lifelong learner, be a servant and be a missionary of the gospel.

Before ascending into heaven, Jesus gave his followers (and us) a mission, which is famously known as the Great Commission (Matthew 28:18-20). The heart of Jesus’ commission to his church is to make disciples of all nations.

Making disciples is the primary way by which God makes himself known to the world. Since Jesus’ aim for his church is to make disciples, our aim is to be a disciple-making-disciple church.

To be a disciple is to be a follower of Jesus and to be a follower of Jesus is to be a disciple. If you are a follower of Jesus, the question is not whether you are a disciple, but how healthy of a disciple you are.

BELOW IS A LIST OF EACH SERMON PREACHED IN THIS SERIES. YOU CAN LISTEN TO ALL OF THEM HERE:

Thankful for who God is and who we are as a result of what He has done.
