Sunday matters. But it was never meant to be the whole picture.

We gather to worship, celebrate what God is doing, and grow in our love for Jesus. Then we go back out into our homes, workplaces and neighborhoods on a mission.

Where is God sending you this week?

Who are you discipling?

Joey McLaughlin says that was the first question Elevate City’s leaders had to answer. And it had to be names, not just staff.

Be honest with yourself. Then start with one name.

You can grow a church and still miss Jesus. 🔥

The marketing, the building, and the music can carry you a long way. They can’t give you what only time with Jesus gives.

Leaders, what are you building on?

Waiting for life to slow down before you disciple someone?

Start with the rhythms you already have. A lunch break could be an opportunity to invest in someone.

Jesus’ disciple making approach started with two words: “with Him.”

Who gets to see how you follow Jesus in everyday life?

Who are you discipling?

Joey McLaughlin joins Josh Howard to share how one church began building a disciple making movement—and what had to change in his own life first.

The Great Commandment comes before the Great Commission.

Disciple making can’t happen apart from loving, caring relationships.

Who’s at your table this week?

[Discipleship.org @OrgDiscipleship]

A disciple is someone following Jesus, being changed by Jesus, and committed to the mission of Jesus.

[Discipleship.org @OrgDiscipleship]

The wreckage of sin should break our hearts. It should also fill us with hope.

[Discipleship.org @OrgDiscipleship]

A porch light. A few chairs. A warm welcome.

If you’re handing out candy this weekend, consider how you can help the people who stop by feel seen. Introduce yourself to a parent. Remember a child’s name. Ask a neighbor how they’ve been.

Jesus calls us to love our neighbors.

If the only victory is when we die, we’re missing the opportunity in front of us. If we’re serious about evangelism and disciple making, we have to come to it knowing Jesus wins.

#DiscipleMaking

[Discipleship.org @OrgDiscipleship]

Disciple making isn’t about perfect people. It’s about people who believe Jesus actually wins.

[Discipleship.org @OrgDiscipleship]

What if we’ve been waiting for heaven to experience victory?

Josh Howard says if we want to be serious about evangelism and disciple making, we have to start with this: Jesus wins. Chains can be broken. Battles can be won for good, not just for a week or two.

[Discipleship.org @OrgDiscipleship]

Pastors, how you talk about sin shapes how your people fight it.

[Discipleship.org @OrgDiscipleship]

Repentance isn’t a one-time decision.
It’s a daily posture of humility, confession, and obedience.
That’s where revival starts.

You can write the perfect disciple making plan and still watch it stall.

Why? Because people don’t just follow plans. They follow people.

Strategy answers “what should we do?” Culture answers “what do people like us do?”
Build the second one and the first one gets a lot easier.

[Discipleship.org @OrgDiscipleship]

Motivation fades. Belonging doesn’t.

Nobody stays inspired alone for long. Disciple makers need other disciple makers.

[Discipleship.org @OrgDiscipleship]

Pastor, if you want a church full of disciple makers, don’t just hand people a strategy.

Put them around people who are already making disciples.

Normal is contagious.

[Discipleship.org @OrgDiscipleship]

You can have the right goal and the right plan and still stall.

Put yourself around people who are already doing what you want to do, and everything gets easier.

“As iron sharpens iron...” Proverbs 27:17

[Discipleship.org @OrgDiscipleship]

James Clear makes a simple point: the best way to build a new habit is to join a group where that habit is already normal.

Strategy helps. Culture sustains.

That’s why disciple making has to be a church culture, not a program.
