In this in-depth discussion, Matt Dabbs interviews Brandon Guindon from Real Life Ministries in Texas. They dive into the principles of creating a disciple-making culture within the church body. Brandon shares his journey in ministry and how a focus on disciple-making, modeled by Jesus' example, transformed his approach and shaped the culture at Real Life Ministries. He provides insights into how he has successfully nurtured this in his own congregation and has imparted this approach to others, enabling them to raise more disciples. He emphasizes the importance of keeping the message simple, genuine discipleship as a lifestyle, and striving to make 'disciple-makers' rather than just 'disciples'. We have to have a personal, relationship-based approach to spreading the Gospel, echoing Jesus' methods, rather than relying on extensive theological knowledge or complex teachings.
