Last week I attended the Exponential Conference in Orlando, Florida. Here are some of my notes from the Pre-Conference Discipleship track led by Discipleship.org:
Jim Putman
The win is disciples not converts.
Need to go deeper? Feed yourself.
Lots of guys are great speakers and can draw a crowd but they can't make disciples who make disciples.
5 levels of spiritual growth:
1. Spiritually dead (unbelief)
2. Spiritual infant (ignorance; they just don't know)
3. Spiritual child (never confuse number of years with maturity)
4. Spiritual young adult (focusing on God and others; serving)
5. Spiritual adult (a disciple maker)
Bobby Harrington
Discipleship must multiply or there is a failure to launch.
If we're not making spiritual adults, we're likely not making disciples.
Discipleship is not biblical without an emphasis on multiplication.
By not multiplying and reproducing, we embarrass Jesus.
How does the Jesus I believe in and the Gospel I preach determine the person I am and the disciples I make?
Robert Coleman
If discipleship doesn't lead to multiplication and reproduction, it's not really discipleship.
