Page 13: Disciplemaking teachers

D -Disciplined in Daily life

Mark 1:35 Very early in the morning, while it was still dark, Jesus got up, left the house and went off to a solitary place, where he prayed.

Page 14: Disciplemaking teachers

I - Intimate Friendships

James 5:16 Therefore confess your sins to each other and pray for each other so that you may be healed.

Page 15: Disciplemaking teachers

The public person I was wasn’t a lie; it was just incomplete. When I stoppedcommunicating about my problems, the darkness increased and finally dominated me. Asa result, I did things that were contrary to everything I believe.

Page 16: Disciplemaking teachers

S - Self Image 2 Cor. 5:21 God made him who had no sin to

be sin for us, so that in him we might become the righteousness of God.

Matthew 3:17 And lo a voice from heaven, saying, This is my beloved Son, in whom I am well pleased.

2 Tim. 2:3 Endure hardship with us like a good soldier of Christ Jesus.

Ephes. 1:15 For this reason, ever since I heard about your faith in the Lord Jesus and your love for all the saints,

Page 17: Disciplemaking teachers

C -Corporate WorshipI rejoiced with those

who said to me, “Let us go to the house of the Lord.” Psalm 122:1

Page 18: Disciplemaking teachers

I -Intimate Family Life

1 Tim. 5:8 If anyone does not provide for his relatives, and especially for his immediate family, he has denied the faith and is worse than an unbeliever.

Page 19: Disciplemaking teachers

P -Passion for God Philip. 1:7 It is right for me to feel this way

about all of you, since I have you in my heart; for whether I am in chains or defending and confirming the gospel, all of you share in God's grace with me.

Romans 12:11 Never be lacking in zeal, but keep your spiritual fervor, serving the Lord.

Page 20: Disciplemaking teachers

L -Lay MinistryEphes. 4:11-12 It was he who

gave some to be apostles, some to be prophets, some to be evangelists, and some to be pastors and teachers, to prepare God's people for works of service, so that the body of Christ may be built up

Page 21: Disciplemaking teachers

L -Lay MinistryKnow their spiritual giftsMinistering according to their

giftedness As a matter of fact, in practice it works

the other way—the “lower” the part, the more basic, and therefore necessary. You can live without an eye, for instance, but not without a stomach. 1 Cor. 12:22 [Msg]

Page 22: Disciplemaking teachers

E -Evangelistic Interest1 Peter 3:15 But in your hearts

set apart Christ as Lord. Always be prepared to give an answer to everyone who asks you to give the reason for the hope that you have. But do this with gentleness and respect,

Page 23: Disciplemaking teachers

E -Evangelistic Interest Know how to share the words of the

gospel Accept that fact that God accepts you. Believe. Cooperate with what God is trying to do in

your life.

Know your evangelistic style

Page 24: Disciplemaking teachers

Peter’s confrontational approach Acts 2:14 Then Peter stood up with the Eleven,

raised his voice and addressed the crowd: “Fellow Jews and all of you who live in Jerusalem, let me explain this to you; listen carefully to what I say.”

Acts 2:37-38 When the people heard this, they were cut to the heart and said to Peter and the other apostles, “Brothers, what shall we do?”

Peter replied, “Repent and be baptized, every one of you, in the name of Jesus Christ for the forgiveness of your sins. And you will receive the gift of the Holy Spirit.”

Page 25: Disciplemaking teachers

Paul's intellectual approach

Acts 17:2 As his custom was, Paul went into the synagogue, and on three Sabbath days he reasoned with them from the Scriptures,

Page 26: Disciplemaking teachers

The Blind man's testimonial approach

John 9:25 He replied, “Whether he is a sinner or not, I don't know. One thing I do know. I was blind but now I see!” [NIV]

Page 27: Disciplemaking teachers

Dorcas' serving approach

Acts 9:36 In Joppa there was a disciple named Tabitha (which, when translated, is Dorcas), who was always doing good and helping the poor. [NIV]

Page 28: Disciplemaking teachers

The woman at the well's invitational approach

John 4:29 “Come, see a man who told me everything I ever did. Could this be the Christ?”

Page 29: Disciplemaking teachers

Levi's hospitality approach Luke 5:27-30 After this, Jesus went out

and saw a tax collector by the name of Levi sitting at his tax booth. “Follow me,” Jesus said to him, and Levi got up, left everything and followed him.

Then Levi held a great banquet for Jesus at his house, and a large crowd of tax collectors and others were eating with them.

2 Cor. 9:7 Each man should give what he has decided in his heart to give, not reluctantly or under compulsion, for God loves a cheerful giver.

What has to happen inside the student inside class in order to create D.I.S.C.I.P.L.E.S.?

Page 35: Disciplemaking teachers

We must get and keep their attention.

The number one problem in the average Sunday School is boredom.

Bruce Wilkinson says he hears it about 80% of the time.

Page 36: Disciplemaking teachers

If I want people to pay attention to me, all I have to do is pay attention to them.

Voice Loud / soft/ slow/ fast/ quiet

Move my body Throw something at them Something dramatic Something humorous Something personal

Page 37: Disciplemaking teachers

We must expose them to truth. Romans 12:2 Do not conform any longer

to the pattern of this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind. Then you will be able to test and approve what God's will is--his good, pleasing and perfect will.

John 8:32 Then you will know the truth, and the truth will set you free.

Page 38: Disciplemaking teachers

Truth must become truth that matters

Page 41: Disciplemaking teachers

“God is more interested in your

holiness than your happiness/ joy.”

Page 42: Disciplemaking teachers

Psalm 68:3 (NIV) But may the righteous be glad and rejoice before God; may they be happy and joyful.

Page 43: Disciplemaking teachers

“In spite of the fact that God is a God of love and mercy and

grace, He still requires our

obedience and dedication.”

Page 44: Disciplemaking teachers

prosperity, death and destruction. Deut. 30:15

Page 47: Disciplemaking teachers

I am so sorry. I am sorry for the disappointment, the betrayal, and the hurt. I am sorry forthe horrible example I have set for you.I have an overwhelming, all-consuming sadness in my heart for the pain that you and Iand my family have experienced over the past few days. I am so sorry for the circumstances that have caused shame and embarrassment to all of you.

pain pleasure

Quadrant #1: Preparation. How do you prepare?

The left brain handles logical functions.

The right brain handles creative functions.

Page 76: Disciplemaking teachers

Typical left brained preparation:

read passage in several translations. read commentaries and lesson helps look up locations in an atlas. look up key words in Bible

dictionary. look up related verses in cross

references. take copious notes

Page 77: Disciplemaking teachers

Whole brained preparation includes some of these things, plus things like. . .

Taking walks by the beach A Chris Tomlin CD. Reading John Ortberg A lively late night conversation Asking, What if? A failed attempt at an outline A really bad attempt at a poetry Several failed attempts at an outline

Page 78: Disciplemaking teachers

When I use both halves of my brain, working back

and forth, I find that often a fully formed lesson will

come to me, ready to teach in about thirty

minutes.

Page 79: Disciplemaking teachers

This process cannot be hurried or

forced.

Page 80: Disciplemaking teachers

It is change, and not time that turns

sinners into saints.
