I love this verse. I love the implications of Jesus’ words. If you are following Jesus, you will be fishing for men. If you are not fishing for men, you are not following Jesus well.
There are two kinds of people: givers and takers.The takers eat better, but the givers sleep better.
Not too long ago I posted about Missional Circles and highlighted the emphasis for church planters to understand that… Every believer has been sent by Jesus with the Cross in Community to the Culture for the King and His Kingdom!
After He died on the cross and rose again, Jesus gave His disciples instructions to do the same thing He did – to be disciplemakers.
Walter Henrichsen in Disciples Are Made Not Born suggests a hypothetical situation that clearly illustrates the process of multiplication. Suppose a father offers his two sons the choice of taking either one dollar a week for 52 weeks or one cent the first week and an amount each week for the next 51 one week’s that is double the previous week’s amount.
“Making disciples will require the intentionalrefocusing of your whole life, including your time, both personal and ministry.”
