“And the things you have heard me say in the presence of many witnesses entrust to reliable people who will also be qualified to teach others.” – 2 Timothy 2:2
Jesus’ final command to His followers was not simply to make converts, but to make disciples. This process of discipleship is about helping others grow in their faith, develop spiritual maturity, and multiply their impact by teaching others.
1. Discipleship is a Call to Multiply
In 2 Timothy 2:2, Paul lays out a model of spiritual multiplication. Discipleship is about passing on what we’ve learned to others who will do the same. It’s not enough to keep our faith to ourselves—we must invest in people.
2. The Goal is Spiritual Maturity
Colossians 1:28-29 shows Paul’s passion: to present every believer fully mature in Christ. Discipleship isn’t just about teaching information—it’s about transformation. It involves walking with others through real life, helping them grow in Christlikeness.
3. Discipleship Takes Intentional Effort
Paul says in Colossians 1:29, ‘To this end I strenuously contend with all the energy Christ so powerfully works in me.’ Discipleship requires time, energy, patience, and perseverance. It means building relationships, being consistent, and walking alongside others through their highs and lows.
4. Everyone Has a Role in Making Disciples
You don’t have to be a pastor or teacher to make disciples. Every believer can lead someone closer to Jesus. Whether you mentor one person, lead a group, or serve in ministry—your example matters. Discipleship is about being faithful, not flawless.
5. How to Start Making Disciples
– Pray for God to show you who to invest in.
– Meet regularly to study Scripture and pray.
– Model Christlike living in your everyday life.
– Challenge and encourage spiritual growth.
– Help them learn to disciple others in turn.
Final Thought
Making disciples is the heartbeat of the Great Commission. When you pour into others, you don’t just change one life—you begin a chain reaction that impacts generations. Let’s answer the call, multiply the mission, and build the Kingdom of God one disciple at a time.
