Discipleship

Matthew 28:18-20
18 And Jesus came and spake unto them, saying, All power is given unto me in heaven and in earth.
19 Go ye therefore, and teach all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost: 20 Teaching them to observe all things whatsoever I have commanded you: and, lo, I am with you alway, even unto the end of the world. Amen.

Notice that Jesus says to go and do something.

James 1:22

22 But be ye doers of the word, and not hearers only, deceiving your own selves.

Here is a link to a must-read article on discipleship that goes a long way to sum up the discipleship strategy of our church.

Americans and Universalism

What Americans Believe about Universalism and Pluralism is a new update by the Barna Group.  It is an interesting study on what Americans believe about other faiths and our responsibility to share the message of Jesus with others. 

As you read it look at the percentage of Americans believe that Christians and Muslims worship the same God even though their faiths teach very different things about him.  Interesting!
