This episode addresses the commitment to becoming a disciple of Jesus, focusing on the steps and processes that follow this commitment. The speaker reflects on their early experiences with faith, emphasizing the need for a structured approach to discipleship beyond attending church services. Using a metaphor of creating trails in the woods, Chip highlights the importance of following a clear path in life, akin to Jesus' invitation to his disciples in Mark 1:17 to 'follow me, and I will make you fishers of men.' This episode outlines a discipleship pathway with focal points including speaking one's purpose, knowing the word, investing in individuals, lifting one's heart through prayer, living in community, and sharing the message. The session leverages Luke 2:40-52 to underscore Jesus' growth as a model for discipleship and presents an assessment for self-evaluation in these key areas. The goal is to live on mission, grow in faith, follow Jesus' footsteps, and help others do the same on the mission of Disciple Making.  Check out Discipleship.org for resources on disciple-making: https://discipleship.org/resources/ Check out this link to the book Discipleship that Fits: https://discipleship.org/shop/discipleship-that-fits/  Stay Informed - Get our newsletter: http://eepurl.com/hPViAr Key Takeaways: 00:00 The Invitation to Discipleship 01:19 The Process of Faithfulness 02:00 Creating Spiritual Pathways 04:51 Understanding Discipleship 05:48 Navigating Life's Trails 07:29 The Journey of Seeking 11:16 Living Life on Mission 17:05 The Skills of Jesus 26:30 Discovering Your Purpose 26:48 Understanding Your Identity in Christ 27:14 Embracing Your Unique Design 30:14 The Power of Knowing the Word 31:45 Investing in the One 34:44 Lifting Your Heart in Prayer 37:24 Living in Community 39:50 Sharing the Message 40:50 Assessment and Reflection   Resources on Discipleship The Definition of a Disciple Becoming a Disciple Maker https://church-multiplication.com/disciplemaker/
