Following Jesus requires making disciples

Series: Following Jesus

To follow Jesus is to be a fisher of men. It requires we love people enough to warn them about the wrath to come and share with them the good news of salvation in Jesus Christ.

Following Jesus requires God’s will

Series: Following Jesus

How do we know the Lord’s will for us? How can we follow Jesus if we don’t know what he wants for us? What does the Bible tell us about his will?

Following Jesus requires growth

Series: Following Jesus

Following Christ is a process of growth. It’s spiritual growth, growth in our understanding, growth in our conviction, growth in our maturity, and growth in wisdom.

Writing personal letters

Perhaps the personal, handwritten letter is a small gesture. Still, I believe it has profound potential in a fast-moving world where most of our communication is shallow.

Unplugging the television

Unplugging our TVs altogether is an extreme measure, but following Christ is all about extremes. “If anyone wants to follow after me,” Jesus said, “let him deny himself.”

Ignoring our smartphones

The church can turn the world upside down, assuming the next text message can wait. All we need, at least to start, are a few thoughtful, intentional tweaks to our daily routines.

The world should see our fruit

When a tree bears fruit, you can see it. You can reach out and take hold of it. You can taste it. When people look at us Christians, they should see the fruit of the Spirit.
