A logical fallacy is when you make an argument based on reasoning that’s just plain wrong.

Discipleship is a process of spiritual formation. As the Holy Spirit works to conform us into Christ, in conjunction with our cooperation, we grow into maturity. So it’s no surprise that the New Testament teaches a lot about what the maturation process involves. For example, Jesus’ parable of the sower teaches us four clues about…
If being a disciple of Jesus is to imitate and obey him, then how do we do that? Where is a good place to start? Well, if you are breaking one of the Ten Commandments such as committing adultery or stealing, you probably want to start by ceasing to do so. But if you are…
Listening to God is vital for every believer to have a growing relationship with Him. As important as that is, listening is not enough. God isn’t just looking for listeners; He’s looking for people who listen to His voice and act on what they hear. Jesus said, “My sheep listen to my voice; I know…

Are you spending more time doing church programming instead of time investing in meaningful relationships with others? Does your family have to come up to the church just…
by Matt Dabbs and Bobby Harrington What is the gospel? Why aren’t more Christians making disciples? The answers to these two questions are inextricably linked. Our definition of the gospel will affect if and how we make mature disciples who can make more disciples. Here are two ways having a misinformed definition of the gospel…
Sometimes you have to know what something is in order to know if you have it. Revival is one of those things. For example, sitting through a week of church meetings does not mean you have had revival. Being in a tent meeting with special guest speakers does not guarantee you have experienced revival. However,…
Revival happens personally before it happens corporately. Revival comes to people, not churches. We simply see it better when lots of people in a congregation are experiencing the same commitments to the plans of God at the same time. This is exactly what happened in the Jerusalem Church as recoded in Acts 2. Thousands of…
You want to see your church healthy, thriving, and growing, and one of the reasons it’s probably not is because of the culture within your church. The good news is that church culture can be changed. Will it change overnight? No. Will it be easy? No. But it is do-able and making this change is…
We just concluded our 2021 National Disciple Making Forum. This annual gathering is unique—more than twenty networks/organizations come together to focus on disciple making.
