Message Points 

ROOTED—“70 Days of Growing Deep”
Week 5—Connecting with Others—Discipling

Introduction: Throughout Scripture, the mandate is clear: Go and make disciples.   Discipleship involves life-on-life…sharing time, passing on truth, and doing life together with the goal of growing fully devoted followers of Christ. 

We will engage in discipleship, invest well, and create a lasting impact when we make these commitments:

A Commitment to Faithfulness (II Timothy 1:2-9)

  • Passing on Faithfulness involves Courage  (II Peter 1:3) (Ephesians 3:16-20)
  • Passing on Faithfulness Involves Love (I Timothy 1:3-6) (I John 4:7-8, 18-19) 
  • Passing on Faithfulness Involves Self-Discipline  (II Corinthians 10:4-5) (Philippians 4:8)
  • Passing on Faithfulness Involves Sharing the Gospel  (II Timothy 1:8) (Matthew 28:19-20)

A Commitment to a Multiplying Ministry

  • Cycle 1
  • Cycle 2

    In following Jesus there were conditions given to his disciples:
         Self-denial (Matthew 10:37) (Matthew 16:24)
         Leaving all (Matthew 8:22) (Luke 14:33)
         Steadfastness (John 8:31) (I Corinthians 15:57-58)
         Fruitfulness (John 15:8)
         Love (John 15:8)

A Commitment and Confidence in God’s Word

Application: Are we investing well in those who are walking with us and coming behind us? Let’s take a minute -- take the time to examine our close relationships and ask:  Am I impacting lives so that I can create disciples who will again create disciples?
