According to Matthew 28, the mission of every Bible-believing church in the world is to go and make disciples. As a matter of fact, it’s called the Great Commission because there is no greater call on the lives of believers than this one. We are to be witnesses of the faith we have in Jesus — not just with our words but with our lives — and help push people along in their spiritual development as followers or disciples of Jesus.
It doesn’t matter what else we do, how hard we work or how good we look. If we aren’t making disciples, we’re missing the point. We might be doing lots of important things, but if we fail to do the most important thing, we cannot expect the Father to be pleased with us. To ensure that we’re becoming more effective at doing what the Lord is most concerned about, this week’s message is all about disciple making.
