How we invest in our relationships is a big part of making disciples that make more disciples and lead others in the church. Jesus lived intentionally with his disciples by inviting them to join him in every aspect of life, and by challenging them in ways that encouraged trust, growth, and maturity.
This week on the Everyday Disciple Podcast, Caesar speaks with a married couple who are making disciples and developing leaders through intentionally building both invitation and challenge into their relationships with others.
In This Episode You’ll Learn:
- The importance of calibrating both invitation and challenge in relationships.
- How this has implications for making disciples and developing leaders.
- The ways that invitation and challenge speak into marriage and parenting.
- Examples from practitioners showing how it works in real life.
From this episode:
“Whenever we are investing time and energy into discipling someone, or developing them as leaders, or even within parenting our own kids, there’s this strong dynamic that we learn from Jesus where he perfectly calibrated invitation to his life with a challenge to grow, to participate, to be more like him. This concept of Invitation and Challenge is one that is surprisingly simple to understand and amazingly powerful when we master it.”
