Simple Steps Toward Intentional DisciplemakingПример

Day 5: Invite Them into the Work Jesus promised, “I will make you fishers of men” (Matthew 4:19). Yet Jesus did not only tell the disciples how to fish, He invited them to join Him in the “fishing.” For example, in the feeding of the five thousand, Jesus invited the disciples to participate in the miracle (see John 6, Matthew 14, Mark 6, Luke 9). “ You give them something to eat,” Jesus said to the disciples (Matthew 14:16 NIV, emphasis added). We, too, invite those we are discipling to join us in the work of ministry. After all, our goal is to raise up participants in the Kingdom of God, not merely spectators of it.
