About the Personal Disciplemaking Blog

The Guys and I have just finished Part I of "Personal Disciplemaking" and excellent book written by Chris Adsit. Inside the book the author explains the importance of following the biblical model of making disciple to fulfill the Great Commission (Matthew 28:18-20) and bringing people into a mature relationship with Christ. To often individuals can come into the Church and instead of being fed and cared for so that they can grow from spiritual infant to spiritual adult, they often can get lost in large churches and remain spiritual babies. The book outlines how we can fit into God's plan to mature his children. How we can come along side these new Christians and with love and the guidance of the Holy Spirit, can help them to adjust to the yoke of Jesus and begin their journey walking and learning from Jesus daily. As Chris Adsit so simply puts it we are all a work in progress, and as disciples of Jesus we are in a continual learning process.

Part II of the book outlines a number of "Training Objectives" for a new Christian it includes basic foundational truth that every Christian should understand and live by. Its like the "Basic Survival" guide to living a regenerated life, it includes big topics like Salvation, Prayer, God's Word, the Holy Spirit. We have created this blog so that each member of the group can blog what they are learning from these chapters. It's an experiment in distributed study and we'll see if it works. These topics are so foundational in the Christian walk and I look forward to reviewing them and what the Holy Spirit will teach us as we return to these central truths.
