THE CO$T OF DISCIPLESHIP: Making Disciples In Turbulent Times; 2 Timothy 2:2 Discipling 101

by Charles Morris

Overview

THE CO$T OF DISCIPLESHIP 

We certainly live in turbulent times. The economy is unstable, with inflation skyrocketing. There is civil and political unrest with wars and rumors of wars. The news reports reveal lawlessness unleashed in every corner of the world. If we ever needed stable, mature Christians to take their rightful place as spiritual mothers and fathers, we need it now. Our young believers stand the chance of getting caught in the cultural wave of amoral madness and progressive universalism. We need mentors to take their place and be willing to accept the cost of discipleship.

Why do I need a Mentorship plan?

What are the traits of a true Biblical disciple?

What is the personal cost in developing others into leaders?

What are the marks of an ideal mentor?

How do I find a mentor for me?

What are my responsibilities as a trainee or protégé?

How do I deal with conflict or disagreement in the mentoring process?

How can I make the time needed in a mentoring relationship?

We need one another. Yet we don't always know how to develop mentoring relationships that help us grow in the Christian life. What does the call to discipleship mean in our modern, busy, and self-absorbed world? How would we manage the time required to mentor properly? Do we understand the debt of grace we owe to those who are spiritually lost? Do we truly understand the great commission of Matthew 28 that commands us to make disciples and teach others to obey all things our Lord commanded? Drawing on 2 Timothy 2:2 and Matthew 28, Charles Morris answers these timeless questions on being a spiritual mentor.

THE CO$T OF DISCIPLESHIP is compelling and demands a sacrifice few are willing to pay. Biblical discipleship offers a new type of leadership, inspired by our Lord's example, that fosters relationships, sets a Godly example, and serves the body of Christ. Our Lord's pattern of disciple-making involved being intimately involved with others, allowing life to rub against life as iron sharpens iron.
