Living on Mission – B|Disciplers

Living on Mission – B|Disciplers

Jesus told His own disciples to go into all the world and make disciples. These guys knew what discipleship looked like because they did life with Jesus for around 3 years. They had free access to His life. Every day they walked with Him, listened to Him, watched his interactions with people, and shared the table with Him and whoever He invited to join. The disciples saw the Good News in action every day and were transformed by it.

Caesar Kalinowski said, “Life together with Jesus was not just a weekly meeting. It shouldn’t be for our relationships either.” This is so true!

What do our discipling relationships look like?

Paul and Timothy were a great example of a healthy discipling relationship. They spent a good deal of time doing life together while they traveled to share the Good News. When they weren’t together, Paul kept in touch and encouraged Timothy through letters, encouraging him to carry on and make disciples to perpetuate the mission.

“The Disciples had access to every part of Jesus' life for years. Discipleship is moving from unbelief to belief in the gospel in every area of life. That means those we are discipling will need to see and experience the gospel transforming us in every area too.” ~ Caesar Kalinowski

The disciples had access to Jesus’ life. Timothy had access to Paul’s life. Who has access to your life? Who is able to see the Good News transforming you?

Let’s practice Living on Mission and B|Disciplers like Jesus and Paul – doing life together and watching the Good News transform our lives together.
