DEFINE THE WORD // Discipleship
“A disciple is a student or adherent -- Jesus Christ.”
![Page 18: Resolute Vision Banquet 2015](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062503/58ee4d821a28aba1588b4573/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
DEFINE THE WORD // Discipleship
“A disciple is a student or adherent -- Jesus Christ.”
Thus discipleship is an intentional process.
![Page 19: Resolute Vision Banquet 2015](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062503/58ee4d821a28aba1588b4573/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
DEFINE THE WORD // Discipleship
“Jesus’ plan to disciple his 12 was methodical, intentional, and
purposeful. He entered the world with the understanding that the 12 were the linchpin to the next generation.”
![Page 20: Resolute Vision Banquet 2015](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062503/58ee4d821a28aba1588b4573/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
THE PLAN // Matthew 28 Commission
18 “And Jesus came and said to them, ‘All authority in heaven and on earth has been given to me. 19 Go therefore and MAKE DISCIPLES of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, 20 teaching them to observe all that I have commanded you. And behold, I am with you always, to the end of the age.’”

DEFINE THE WORD // Discipleship
“Our Lord's last command was not, "Go and make decisions for Christ" but rather "Go and make disciples.”

ARE WE DISCIPLING? // ABS, on The State of the Bible, 2014
“A majority of U.S. adults (81%) said they consider themselves highly,
moderately or somewhat knowledgeable about the Bible. Yet less than half (43%) were able to name the first five books of the
Bible.”
![Page 24: Resolute Vision Banquet 2015](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062503/58ee4d821a28aba1588b4573/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)
DALLAS WILLARD // USC
“Non-discipleship is the elephant in the church; it is not the many moral
failures, financial abuses or the amazing similarity between
Christians and non-Christians. These are only the effects of the underlying
problem.”
![Page 25: Resolute Vision Banquet 2015](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062503/58ee4d821a28aba1588b4573/html5/thumbnails/25.jpg)
MICHAEL RAMSDEN // Ravi Zacharias Ministries
““The American church is dying, not from lack of effective evangelism, nor from lack of resources, but from lack
of effective discipleship.”
![Page 26: Resolute Vision Banquet 2015](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062503/58ee4d821a28aba1588b4573/html5/thumbnails/26.jpg)

RESOLUTE // Vince Miller
The problem is not “all the bad things men are doing” but rather “the kind of men we are developing,” because it us who Jesus Christ called to make
disciples.

“Men want the same thing today as they wanted in the first century – a
rabbi to teach them. Yet they cannot find one.”

THE PLAN // Dallas Willard
Every church should be able to answer two questions:
1. What is our plan for making disciples?
2. Does the plan work?
