Episode 307: Leading the Mission - Embracing the Call to Make Disciples
Manage episode 397061708 series 2307940
In this episode, we look at 3 ways to stay focused on our mission to make disciples of Jesus Christ to transform the world. The mission serves as the guideline for making decisions and spurring people to action. On examining Matthew 28:16-20, we see a refocus on our primary task, that is, to create disciples who will further make disciples. We discuss three (or perhaps four ;) ways to ensure that the mission remains central to our leadership, and we explore the importance of modelling, setting expectations, and focusing on Jesus. We also consider the implications of the Methodist Church's historical 'general rules' and conclude that returning to our roots and refocusing on our mission may be the best way forward in current chaotic times.
