QUESTION 1

wants to see happening
in your church?
QUESTION 2

Acts 2:38-47
QUESTION 3
What prevents your
church from doing what it
should and realizing the
blessing God wants to
provide?
QUESTION 4
What is needed to
overcome these
hindrances?
MISSION OF GOD

To glorify His Name
To
exalt Christ as Lord

To reconcile the world to Himself

To establish His Kingdom
GLORIFY GOD

To glorify God by becoming a lifelong, obedient disciple of the Lord
Jesus Christ, and

To glorify God by making disciples
of all nations.
“Make Disciples of All Nations!”
“Therefore go and make disciples of all
nations, baptizing them in the name of
the Father and of the Son and of the
Holy Spirit, and teaching them to obey
everything I have commanded you.
And surely I am with you always, to
the very end of the age.”
Matthew 28:19-20 (NIV)
Why does the church exist?
To fulfill the Great Commission!
“Therefore go and make disciples of
ALL nations…”
 “Go” versus “Make disciples”

Better translation:
 “As you are going through the
world, be making disciples…”
Making disciples is:

The priority for ALL believers

In a natural way, as a way of life.

Not by teaching, but by BEING A
MODEL!
Making disciples is
Leading others into a life-long, obedient,
personal relationship with Jesus Christ
which:

Transforms their character into
Christlikeness,

Changes their values into Kingdom
values,

Involves them in His mission.
The DNA of Discipleship

85-96% of Christians still are spiritual babies.

Only 20% have spiritual maturity as a life goal.

75% of teens leave church at age 19.

Only 1 in 30 Americans have a biblical
worldview.

Only 9% of born-again Christians have a
biblical worldview.

A worldview is the total set of values,
morals, beliefs, and assumptions that a
person holds either consciously or
subconsciously.

3 in 5 adults want a deeper spiritual life
but are not involved in trying to grow.

20 million Americans are committed to
authentic discipleship.
Where are we in discipleship?
1.
Ignorant: I don’t know.
2.
Apathetic: I don’t care.
3.
Indifferent: So what?
4.
Uncommitted: What’s in it for me?
The Solution

Repentance

A radical return to following Jesus
as His disciples

A re-shaping of the worldview of
Christians to a biblical worldview
Luke 9:23 (NASB)
“If anyone wishes to come after
Me, he must deny himself,
and take up his cross daily
and follow Me.”

authority in heaven and on earth has been
given to me. Therefore go and make disciples
of all nations, baptizing them in the name of
the Father and of the Son and of the Holy
