A DISCIPLE is someone who is
following Jesus, is being
changed by Jesus and is
committed to the mission of Jesus
Disciple-making is a deliberate
relationship in which we walk
alongside other disciples, to
encourage, equip and challenge
one another in love to grow
toward maturity in Christ.


To CHANGE
How, what process,
did Jesus use to see
the disciples
change?
You must be born again.
Going to church…Saying a
prayer…Being part of a Christian
family is never enough!
You decide to follow Christ.

Disciple-making and how Jesus saw the disciples change
Each of the 12 had, on their own,
to become fully responsible for
making self-initiating, reproducing,
fully devoted followers of Christ.
1. Jesus my Living Example
The disciples needed to
understand a simple question:


Who is this person who says and
does such amazing things?
Jesus was directive—he told them
what to do.


“Knowledge was gained by being
with Jesus—not understood by
explanation”
Jesus was directive—he told them
what to do.


“Knowledge was gained by being
with Jesus—not understood by
explanation”
Mark 1-5: The disciples observe
Jesus’s authority:


• over the demonic, over
sin, over the sabbath, over
nature, over illness and
disease, over death
Mark 1-5: Jesus relates to:


• demoniacs, lepers, a paralysed
man, a tax collector, a man with
withered hand, a woman with a
fl
ow of blood, a synagogue ruler
and his daughter

withered hand, a woman with a

Mark 1-5: Jesus challenges
attitudes:


• He forgives sins, Eats with
sinners, Violates the
sabbath
Mark 1-5: Jesus challenges
attitudes:


• He forgives sins, Eats with
sinners, Violates the
sabbath
The disciples start to change:


go to Levi’s for dinner 2:15-17;
pluck grain on a Sabbath 2:23-28.
A disciple is a learner.


A learner needs an example.


The example of Jesus brings
change in his disciples lives.

A learner needs an example.


The example of Jesus brings
change in his disciples lives.
The most important part
of forming a disciple is
their relationship to their
master.
“The magnetic attraction
of the life and ministry of
Jesus became the focus
of the disciples as they
started to follow him”
Show people a
glorious King Jesus,
help them to fall in love
with him.
2. Jesus my Provocative
Teacher
2. Jesus my Provocative
Teacher
Jesus
challenged the
12 to think
differently
“The Kingdom of Heaven is like the
yeast a woman used in making
bread. Even though she put only a
little yeast in three measures of
fl
our, it permeated every part of
the dough.”
Jesus teaches his disciples away
from the crowds…


• to challenge them and make
them think more.


• What does it mean to really
follow him.
“I do; You help”

Mark 10—The rich young man
(potentially a great advert for
Jesus’ ministry).


The young man says, “Look
I’m good…but empty”
Jesus challenges his inner value,
his idol:


“Go and sell all your possessions
and give the money to the poor,
and you will have treasure in
heaven. Then come, follow me.”
23 Jesus looked around and said
to his disciples, “How hard it is for
the rich to enter the Kingdom of
God!” 24 This amazed them.


Doesn’t God want me to be rich?
Everyone thought,
“God wants me to
be rich”
Jesus looked around and said to his
disciples, “How hard it is for the rich to enter
the Kingdom of God!” 24 This amazed
them. But Jesus said again, “Dear children,
it is very hard to enter the Kingdom of God.
25 In fact, it is easier for a camel to go
through the eye of a needle than for a rich
person to enter the Kingdom of God!”
26 The
disciples
were
astounded.
Jesus breaks through the religious
thinking of the disciples.


• Our background, upbringing,
teaching produces our thinking.


• We need to allow Jesus to
reshape how we think.
Jesus did not provide easy
answers for the 12.


• They had to think for
themselves.


• Their minds had to be
discipled.
Jesus deliberately
troubled his disciples
by challenging what
they assumed.
Jesus also used the 12 to assist him
when feeding the 5000


• You feed them!


• They progressed to a partnership with
Jesus…the 12 became visible
• The 12 gained a sense of value
—they were important to Jesus.


• The mission of Jesus started to
belong to the 12.
• Internalisation
This leads to increased
learning speed—when
the 12 knew they would
be involved they
watched and prepared
better.
3. Jesus my Supportive
Coach
Jesus sends out the 12 / 70.


To reach this stage takes time.
“You do; I help”
Jesus changes his leadership style
—now he is the team coach.
When they return he listens and
help them understand what
happened.
Most people will
not feel ready for
this!
Jesus made sure they were
properly prepared, Matt 10:


• Clear Instructions—Go only to
the lost sheep of Israel


• Proclaim the Kingdom of God


• …cure the sick, raise the
dead, cast out demons
• If people don’t receive the
message then move on.


• He gave them Authority.


• He told them his expectations…


• Of them, and of what would
happen to them.
Lk 10:17,


When the disciples returned, they
joyfully reported to him, “Lord,
even the demons obey us when
we use your name!”
Disciple-making and how Jesus saw the disciples change
Disciple-making and how Jesus saw the disciples change
They grew…


• Con
fi
dence, Ability (gift), Faith


• Realised their weaknesses /
shortcomings—e.g.Mk 9:28


• New leadership skills
Do you need training?

Jesus has
commissioned you—
what are you doing?
4. Jesus delegates it all to
me!
The ministry of Jesus depended
upon his training of the 12 being
effective.


The disciples had to go and
multiply.
At the cross / Pentecost there is a converging
of the work of Jesus and the mission/ministry
of the 12

“You do;
I watch”
Jesus shares his last hours with
the 12—they are the ministers
now.
The work of Jesus
would not have been
completed if the 12
were not ready to take
up their position.
Do you have a succession
plan?

Are you ready to multiply?

Would your ministry grow
after you leave?
Jn 17:18


Just as you sent me into the
world, I am sending them into the
world.


Now the mission of Jesus has
become their ministry.
Jn 17:20


“I am praying not only for these
disciples but also for all who will
ever believe in me through their
message.”


Multiplication!
Jn 17:20


“I am praying not only for these
disciples but also for all who will
ever believe in me through their
message.”


Multiplication!
Do you look like Jesus?


Do you minister like Jesus?


Do you multiply like Jesus?
Who have you
selected, trained and
motivated to carry on
the mission?
Robert Coleman,

“What really counts in the
fi
nal
continuation of our ministry is
the faithfulness with which our
converts go out and make
leaders of their converts, not
simply mere followers.”
