how to study, pray, evangelize, and live the Christian life. What helps us
move past the superficial and really grow to lean on each other for
strength when we gather for worship and study or for fellowship meals?
Regular time spent in voluntary fellowship along with dedication to each
other through our thoughts, prayers, words, and actions.
Sure, all that sounds great, but with busy lives and people with all kinds of
competing interests, how do we do it? How do we start creating this
culture of church away from church? The same way anything is done in
the church through discipleship.
Part of the inspiration for this article was a sermon I heard
recently where the preacher was helping teach his listeners this process
of discipleship. He described how he and his family would pick two or
three families or individuals at a time and spend time in regular
fellowship, having those folks over for dinner every so often or going
places together. They didnt just gather to watch sports, talk politics, or
play games theyd take every opportunity to discuss the Scriptures, to
pray for each other, to show the others how to study their Bibles, to teach
them how to evangelize and make disciples out of others. As those folks
reached maturity, they would spend less and less time with the preachers
family and more time with other families in the church whom they could
teach, perfectly exemplifying the disciples making disciples making
disciples model of 2 Timothy 2:2.
If were working to cultivate those kind of relationships together,
well never again have to worry about whether or not people are going to
show up to our service day or door-knocking event. We wont see the
church become stagnant within a week or two of a gospel meeting. We
wont see our youth come off of the spiritual highs of summer camps or
youth rallies and revert to being distant again. If we want our activities to
be truly effective, all we have to do is what Christ wanted from us all
along invest in each other, disciple each other, and love one another.
Be the church away from church.
