One of the most important aspects of being a multiplying disciple-maker is us being the disciple first and allowing Him to transform all areas of our life. In this episode we discuss the importance of immersion in the value system of the Kingdom of Jesus so that it deals with root issues that produce fruit in our lives.
As we experience the transformational power of the gospel, we should become more like him inwardly and outwardly. Discipleship makes us like Jesus in character and cause. In this episode we discuss what it means to be like Jesus in character and mission.
One of the biggest challenges and most important steps in the process of becoming a multiplying disciple-maker is moving beyond basic fundamentals of faithful membership and getting us into our world. In this episode, we discuss some important concepts from the book, “Surprise the World: The Five Habits of Highly Missional People” to help understand how this happens.
The message of the gospel is the message of abundant life. How do we effectively communicate this message to those who have never experienced it in such a way that stirs up curiosity the way Jesus did?

The first step in multiplication is moving from Membership to Mobilization, which requires an awareness of opportunities to engage with those in the key spaces of life in meaningful ways. The essence of mobilization is engagement…the question is how do we move towards meaningful relationships.
We get a ton of questions related to making disciples, creating a discipleship culture, evangelism vs discipleship, etc. There is a lot of confusion and misunderstanding around this topic that often leads to unnecessary division. Today, we address a number of the most frequent questions we receive from church leaders, pastors, & saints.
Each believer has the responsibility of walking a discipleable person through the process of discipleship. The question is…how do we do that? Today, we discuss the foundational principles of helping someone become a fully-devoted follower of Jesus.

Many pastors, church leaders, and saints are feeling frustrated over the fact that while we give our time, energy, and resources to programs and events, it rarely leads to true missional success. In this episode, we discuss how this can be leveraged for the purpose of moving toward being the apostolic church we are destined to be.
The infilling of the Spirit of God is more than just a Sunday experience but is for us to exercise power and authority as we live on mission every day. As we go, we take the life-giving power of the Holy Spirit into places that desperately need the the transformation only He can bring.
A major theme of the Book of Acts multiplication revival was that they experienced the supernatural power of God on a regular basis. If we are going to turn our world upside down, we must exercise the power and authority God has given us and expect to see the supernatural.
There are some who are what Michael Frost refers to in his book “Surprise the World” as “gifted evangelists” - people who just have a natural gifting of reaching people with the gospel. Unfortunately, most of us do not fall into that category, but we are all still called to be “missional believers.” Today, we want to encourage the missional believers that you can be effective in living on mission by providing practical tips for reaching your world.
In his book “Surprise the World”, Michael Frost states that there are two kinds of people: 1) Gifted Evangelists and 2) Evangelistic Believers. In this episode, we want to discuss what it means to be missional believers and how living “questionable lives” evokes questions from friends/family/etc. & provides the opportunity to identify people of peace.
75% of all new converts are won to the Lord by people who have been a believer for 2 years or less. In today's episode, we address this and how we can mobilize the sleeping giant of believers living on mission every single day!
