Millennials want to be the church, not go to church “Discipleship is often the missing link that would bring the young-adult generation into the church, but also to be the church, because they are not concerned with just coming to the church. They also want to go out and be the church,” he said. Read More

Replicate Round Up for April 17th, 2015

As we find new articles and resources that talk about Disciple-Making, we are going to collect them and publish them each Friday. There Needs to Be a Drastic Change... and the Foundation Has to Be God's Word" "The first button of discipleship is discipling your own children," Park said. "Before discipling the children of others, one must disciple his or her own children first. We can't just rely on Sunday school. And a teaching that is not shown in a parent's lifestyle will probably not be effective -- we must be parents that are respected by our children." Read More

Too Busy to Lead Family Worship?

Don Whitney: God gave Spurgeon an extraordinary capacity for work and productivity. And yet, despite the ceaseless, crushing demands on his schedule, at 6:00 each evening, setting aside a to-do list that few could match today, he gathered his wife, twin boys, and all others present in his home at the time for family worship. After his death, his wife Susannah wrote this glimpse into their lives together with their twin boys, both of whom became pastors: After the meal was over, an adjournment was made to the study for family worship, and it was at these seasons that my beloved’s prayers were remarkable for their tender childlikeness, their spiritual pathos, and their intense devotion. He seemed to come as near to God as a little child to a loving father, and we were often moved to tears as he talked thus face to face with his Lord. Read More

Platt Unveils 'Reset' of IMB Strategy, Structure

Ann Harman: Platt said the changes are intended to be reproducible through the IMB's national partners around the world: making disciples among unreached people and seeing churches established, then seeing those churches, in turn, send Christians to unreached people, training them and supporting them as they engage the world with the Gospel. "We want to fuel movement like this all over the world!" Platt said. "But let me be clear. Strategy and structure are not the ultimate answer to seeing Christians and churches engaging unreached people with the Gospel.... What that means is that more than we need a streamlined strategy or a simplified structure, we need the power of God to do what only He can do. "This is why I am calling everyone across our IMB family -- from trustees to personnel or otherwise -- to fast and pray, because only God can do this work.... Let's get down on our knees, then get up from our knees and do whatever it takes, no matter what that means, to set the sails for God to empower limitless missionary teams who are making disciples and multiplying churches among unreached people for the glory of His name."
