R12 Christian “The Executive Summary”
• Surrender to God “All In”
Romans 12:1 – “Therefore, I urge you, brothers in view of God’s mercy, to offer your bodies as living sacrifices, holy and pleasing to God – this is your spiritual act of worship.”
8
• Separate from the World
Venture Church & Living On The Edge
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.”
![Page 9: West Africa Theological Seminary 2013 Masters Module on Discipleship](https://reader035.vdocuments.site/reader035/viewer/2022062501/5681645f550346895dd639bb/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
R12 Christian “The Executive Summary”
• Sober in self-assessment
Romans 12:3 – “For by the grace given me, I say to every one of you: Do not think of yourself more highly than you ought but rather think of yourself with sober judgment, in accordance to the measure of faith God has given you.”
9
• Serving in love
• Supernaturally responding to evil with good
Romans 12:9-10 – “Love must be sincere. Hate what is evil; cling to what is good. Be devoted to one another in brotherly love. Honor one another above yourselves.”Romans 12:14 & 21 – 14 “Bless those who persecute you; bless and do not curse… 21 Do not be overcome by evil, but overcome evil with good.”

A Disciple is one who puts Christ first by… - Having a personal relationship with Jesus. - Being held accountable within a small
group. - Serving others through acts of love and
compassion to build God’s Kingdom. - Demonstrating a life of Stewardship. - Sharing the Gospel—Reproducing Disciples.
Maturing in these five dimensions results in a high impact Christian with a Biblical World-View. 10

Having a real relationship with Jesus
A disciple sees and knows Him as a living friend, not just a historical figure. The relationship is personal, not institutional, and it is motivated by how the Disciple can give glory to God in all aspects of their life. By practicing the Spiritual Disciplines, one will come to know Jesus as both Lord and Savior.

Accountability within a small group
Gives others the right to speak into your life as you progress in putting off the “old self.” The Twelve Disciples comprised the first small group because Jesus knew that becoming an intentional authentic Christian could not be accomplished in isolation.
12
Accountability within a small group
![Page 13: West Africa Theological Seminary 2013 Masters Module on Discipleship](https://reader035.vdocuments.site/reader035/viewer/2022062501/5681645f550346895dd639bb/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
Serving others through acts of love & compassion
This is reflected through our spiritual gifts as we seek to glorify God. A Disciple will answer the call to act for those in need. Jesus came to serve, and as a disciple, we are compelled to follow His example as we build the kingdom. For some it may be carpentry shown through the building of a Habitat for Humanity house, teaching a Bible study, serving on a mission team or praying for babies in the nursery.

![Page 14: West Africa Theological Seminary 2013 Masters Module on Discipleship](https://reader035.vdocuments.site/reader035/viewer/2022062501/5681645f550346895dd639bb/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
A Disciple readily acknowledges that God created the universe and owns it all. Because God owns everything, we acknowledge that we are simply stewards of the gifts of time, talent, resources, relationships, and truth. “God gives us enough time to do everything He wants us to do,” the talent to serve the Church, the resources to support ministries and to nurture relationships with grace.
14
Demonstrating a life of Stewardship
![Page 15: West Africa Theological Seminary 2013 Masters Module on Discipleship](https://reader035.vdocuments.site/reader035/viewer/2022062501/5681645f550346895dd639bb/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
Sharing the Gospel—Reproducing Disciples
Sharing the Gospel, modeling a Christ-centered life, and nurturing other disciples is our fundamental calling from Christ. We are called to share our own personal faith journey, for the purpose of bringing others to Christ. We live our lives reflecting authenticity and transparency to reflect His Lordship. We invest our life in the lives of others to help engage, equip and encourage disciples for Christ. The cycle of Christian life is perpetuated
when a Disciple’s life is committed to reproducing more Kingdom builders.

From Jesus Calling by Sarah Young
Song of Songs 2:13; Luke 10:42
Come away with Me for a while. The world, with its nonstop demands, can be put on hold. Most people put Me on hold, rationalizing that someday they will find time to focus on Me. But the longer people push Me into the background of their lives, the harder it is for them to find Me.
![Page 31: West Africa Theological Seminary 2013 Masters Module on Discipleship](https://reader035.vdocuments.site/reader035/viewer/2022062501/5681645f550346895dd639bb/html5/thumbnails/31.jpg)
31
You live among people who glorify busyness; they have made time a tyrant that controls their lives. Even those who know Me as Savior tend to march to the tempo of the world. They have bought into the illusion that more is always better: more meetings, more programs, more activity.
From Jesus Calling by Sarah Young(Continued)

32
I have called you to follow Me on a solitary path, making time alone with Me your highest priority and deepest Joy. It is a pathway largely unappreciated and often despised. However, you have chosen the better thing, which will never be taken away from you. Moreover, as you walk close to Me, I can bless others through you.
From Jesus Calling by Sarah Young(Continued)

HARMONY OF THE GOSPELSWith Christ in the School of Disciple Building
By Carl Wilson
Gospels & Acts = 90 Chapters about Jesus Christ’s appearance & ministry in the world
5: Genealogies & birth narratives show Jesus as God’s focal point to redeem and restore fallen mankind from its sinful condition.
33: Focus on Jesus’ death & resurrection 1½ weeks of Jesus’ 33+ years on earth plus the 40 days in His
Resurrection body Make up the “Core of the Christian Faith”
52: Jesus’ Teaching and acts which prepared the Disciples on how to minister Jesus taught & trained with a clear view of His Death, Resurrection
Power, New Life in the Spirit Jesus’ methodology keeps everyone aware that He, and He alone, is the
head of the Church “Body of Christ” = the church as the organism through which the Risen,
Reigning Christ works in the world until His glorious return
