Gospel-driven Disciples


What is a Gospel-driven Disciple?

A Disciple who makes 
disciples who makes disciples!

 A disciple is a believer who patterns their lifestyle after the lifestyle of a more mature believer.

 A "discipler" is a believer who is obedient to the Great Commission and actively pours their live and the teachings of Christ into a disciple. (See above definition)

 Jesus commanded [not requested or suggested] that we do exactly as He did for three years for His 12 disciples (See above definition)

"Go therefore and make disciples of all the nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of he Son and of the Holy Spirit, teaching them to observe all things that I have commanded you; and lo, I am with you always, [even] to the end of the age. Amen. (Matthew 28:19-20, NKJV)

    I like these Gregg. I often think (on a personal level) that being a disciple is about discipling myself. Sadly, that definition was not present in my mind when I gorged on BBQ yesterday. :)

    Bob - Thank you kind sir! Sadly, very few understand and or practice biblical discipleship. Hope to get to KC one day and stuff myself with BBQ with you!
