Churches often pursue innovative ideas to reach the spiritually lost, but few know how to walk out a day-to-day lifestyle of intentional disciple-making. Pastor Brandon Guindon will show how Jesus' call to Go and Make Disciples can become more than a slogan by relearning the discipleship methods modeled by Jesus. Intentional introduces eight principles of disciple-making, including listening with genuine intent, developing potential, speaking the truth, and living a lifestyle of discipleship. Jesus' methods of disciple-making are as holy as his message, and it's time to relearn them and approach all relationships differently, making disciples in Jesus' name and growing spiritually.

Rediscover the Intentional Disciple-Making Methods of Jesus Christ

Today, churches and their leaders relentlessly pursue innovation in their efforts to reach the spiritually lost. However, very few Christians understand how to incorporate intentional disciple-making into their daily lives. Pastor Brandon Guindon, with decades of experience in disciple-making, aims to shed light on how Jesus' call to "Go and Make Disciples" can become more than just a vague church slogan. In his book, "Intentional: Eight Principles of Disciple Making," Guindon delves into the gospel roots and practical nature of these principles, which include listening with genuine intent to understand different voices and experiences, looking for and developing the potential in others, knowing when to speak the truth firmly and when to allow interruptions, and living a lifestyle of discipleship.

Jesus Christ intentionally discipled twelve people every day for three and a half years, and then he commanded us to do the same. He empowered us by sending the indwelling Holy Spirit to guide us. The early church thrived and expanded by imitating the relational methods Jesus modeled, but somewhere along the way, we lost sight of the simplicity and holiness of his disciple-making methods. It is time to relearn these methods, examine the obstacles in our lives that hinder us from emulating the ancient ways of Christ, and approach all our relationships differently, with the ultimate goal of making disciples in Jesus' name and growing spiritually in the process.

By rediscovering the intentional disciple-making methods of Jesus Christ, we can reconnect with the heart of his mission and bring the kingdom of God to earth in a powerful way. Let us embrace this calling and be agents of transformation in our communities and beyond.
