a brainstorming exercise:

A few questions brainstormed:



  • What is discipleship?
  • Why is discipleship important?
  • Where is discipleship found in the bible?
  • Do you have examples personally?
  • Current ministries that use discipleship?
  • Were you discipled?
  • How were you discipled?
  • What made an impact on you?
  • Why are you drawn to discipleship? Do you think everyone is?
  • Everyone is called to some form of evangelism - do you see the same in discipleship?
  • How have you developed discipleship ministry?
  • Where would you like to see this go?
  • Is it wrong to ask that of God? ... the whole vision/for ministry/ thing???? Is that totally in God's domain?
  • Who has been impacted by discipleship?
  • How does the Holy Spirit lead in discipleship?
  • Where do you see the need in the church at large?
  • How has the church dropped the ball?
  • What do you see as barriers to discipleship ministries?
  • Can discipleship be formulaic?
  • Each church needs ideas to fit their needs - can a book do this?
  • Can anyone be a discipler?
  • Why is it important for all believers to invest in discipling? Or should it be a calling?
  • How do you disciple?
  • How often do you meet?
  • What materials do you use?
  • How many do you meet with at a time (other than one-on-one)? Do you group them by any variables?
  • What have been the pitfalls of discipling?
  • How do you prepare your disciples to be disciplers to others?
  • What are the greatest benefits you have seen from discipling others?
  • How long must one be discipled?


Asking a regular readers and others a new question:
Would you be interested in hearing about actual ministry via blog?

This blog is a blogging of my thoughts and struggles, prayers, and fears, joys and sorrows. I am considering adding a blog that would be more informative. Just wondering if anyone would read it.
