The Ancient Catholic Inheritance: Dependency vs. Discipleship

Being a Christian in our modern culture has been boiled down to coming to filling a pew on Sunday and then going home - with very little expectation to participate in the new Life Christ has for us. But the faith of the early church looked radically different, because instead of creating people who are simply dependent and uninvolved, they created disciples who were trained to go out, spread the Gospel, and be empowered by spiritual gifts to bring destruction upon the enemy's kingdom.

This is what God is calling us back to: A body of believers who desire to walk like Yeshua walked in humility, power, and love, and who go out and bring God's Kingdom to earth as it is in heaven by impacting one person at a time - to make disciples, not dependents.
