Kingdom Discipleship - Part 2

Jesus commanded his disciples to make disciples. His teaching was focused on the kingdom of God, God's rule and reign. Jesus introduced this kingdom with his first inhale, and he exhaled, "It is finished" on the cross. He rose from the dead and made clear to his followers that a new day had dawned. He taught his disciples for 40 days about the kingdom before he ascended into heaven, and he promised them, "I will return." We take Jesus' instruction, "Make disciples", seriously. The first volume in this three part series, Being a Disciple, is an exploration of what it means to be a follower of Jesus. John, Jesus' best friend, presented his process of moving a new follower to maturity in 1 John 2:12-14. The second book in the Kingdom Discipleship series examines the process of Paul moving from being a disciple to making disciples, as outlined in the book of Romans. The focus moves from being a disciple, to helping others become established as lifelong growing disciples of Jesus.
