20 years ago, I made a commitment to disciple at least one person per year for the rest of my life. During some years, I have discipled more. In 2009, I will make the same commitment.
Why? A one-on-one relationship with a new believer energizes me more than almost anything else that I do. There is no better experience than God working through me to impact the life of another.
I am the pastor of a larger church. I deal with hundreds of people weekly. There are constant demands on my time from many directions. Yet, sitting down for one hour with a new believer brings me back to what my walk with Jesus is all about – fulfilling the Great Commission.
