Join us at the Bible Bistro as Ryan and Brian reconnect from Greenwood, Indiana, and embark on a discussion about the Great Commission and the essence of making disciples. We kick off with a catch-up, sharing a cooking tip involving potato nails, before shifting our focus to Matthew 28:18-20. Through exploring the nuances of English grammar versus Greek, we underscore the imperative nature of Jesus' command to make disciples, laying the foundation for an understanding of its central role in the Christian faith.
Listen in as we break down the process of discipleship, emphasizing that making disciples is not just about evangelizing but involves a transformation into Christ-like character. Drawing from Dallas Willard's insights in "The Great Omission," we highlight the necessity of long-term commitment and the nature of discipleship, combining learning, apprenticeship, and spiritual formation. We illustrate these principles through the relationship between Paul and Timothy, emphasizing the relational and ongoing aspects of discipleship.
Finally, we explore the essence of discipleship, distinguishing it from intellectual learning and focusing on teaching obedience and embodying Christ's character. Through personal anecdotes and scriptural references, we underscore the journey of guiding others toward a Christ-like way of life. The conversation also highlights the importance of internal formation, addressing doubts, and the goal of discipleship: continuing the work of Jesus by loving others as He loved us. Tune in for an exploration of what it means to make and be disciples in today's world.
