Pastor, you are a sower of ideas. When you sow seeds of possibility in the minds of disciples you can reap a crop of new disciples. Don’t keep the faith. Pass it along.
2 Timothy 2:2, “You have heard me teach things that have been confirmed by many reliable witnesses. Now teach these truths to other trustworthy people who will be able to pass them on to others” (NLT).
All it takes is a thought to inspire someone to see the one in front of them. Who in your congregation will have their eyes opened to others around them that are primed to step into their calling as disciples?
Ordinary people can have an amazing impact for the kingdom of God.
You can do this. Anyone in your church can do this. What are you waiting for? Sow away.
Listen to these two stories from Jordan Gadsby, Regional Director for the ACOP of Canada.
What’s your story of someone in your congregation who called out the disciple in another believer? Please post in the comments below.
