Take the Next Faithful Step Clear Lake Presbyterian Church Discipleship Leadership Workshop Part 1 of 3

Goal: Thriving Communities of Disciples Ordinary, everyday individuals who are … empowered by the Holy Spirit, increasingly devoted to God, growing in likeness to Jesus, and living in generous love with their neighbors. The fruit of this lifestyle is disciples who make disciples, building for God’s Kingdom. We grow as a disciple when we… Empower by moving upward – into deeper intimacy with Christ Engage by moving outward – into fuller participation in God’s mission in the world Embrace by moving inward – into more authentic relationships with other believers

Stage 1: Come and See John 1:35-39 An invitation to move toward belief Exploring faith, but not committed yet “I’m curious about Jesus and want to know more about who he was and what he taught.”

Stage 2: Come and Follow Me Matthew 4:18-20 An invitation to learn and build a foundation “The productive life” “I love to study the Bible and serve my church.”

Stage 3: Come and Be with Me Mark 3:13-15 An invitation to intimacy & surrender An inward journey “I long to be with Jesus, sometimes without words.”

Stage 4: Abide with Me John 15:4-5 An invitation to sacrifice & obedience Giving up that which is important to you for what God is calling you to do. “I am “all in” for Jesus. My whole life is a reflection of Jesus and God’s Kingdom.”

What the Stages are not: Static & linear One size fits all A way to box people in Sequential in their value Dynamic Helical Expressed differently Each stage has its gift

How do I discern which stage I’m in? Which invitation of Jesus feels the most congruent to me right now? What words describe my faith right now? What am I hungry for?

What is my responsibility as a leader to grow disciples who make disciples? Who is helping me grow as a disciple? Who is God calling me to help nurture their growth as a disciple? JG JY ALW

Next Steps Do one thing that helps you know God better Write down your story & share with one other person Connect to a community Next Workshop: How do I take the next faithful step? How do I help others become unstuck? What kind of leader nurtures the spiritual formation of others? Sunday, Feb. 26
