Key Points From This Episode:
- You don’t have to do things perfectly for God to work. “GOd can hit straight with a crooked stick.”
- “Anything worth doing is worth doing poorly at first” so don’t quit just because it didn’t work immediately.
- Always go back to the Bible and check what you are learning about disciple-making. Then just obey Jesus.
- Movement leaders get frustrated by lostness.
- Movement leaders are willing to cut off everything that isn’t fruitful and just do what they find in the Bible.
- Rodger was looking for strategies and answers, but God said “just abide in me.”
- Prayer is key and can be learned. He was challenged to pray an hour a day and began to do this. Following a pattern helped him grow in prayer.
- Western culture doesn’t have as much natural community, but it does exist, in places like prisons, college campuses, skateparks, etc.
- You can learn simple, reproducible ways to develop community. This is vital for fruitfulness in a Western context.
- Americans tend to be driven by programs. We are weak at community. But this is needed for healthy multiplication.
- God can do this through you. Believe and keep obeying.
