Ordinary People, Extraordinary Impact
You don’t need a seminary degree or a perfect life to make disciples. God delights in using ordinary people who are willing to say, “Come with me as I follow Jesus.” If you can share your story and what you’re learning, you can help someone else grow in faith. Discipleship is about passing on what you’ve received, trusting God to multiply your investment in ways you may never see.
Don’t let fear or feelings of inadequacy hold you back. The method is simple: one person investing in another, one life at a time. As you pour into someone else, God will use your faithfulness to impact generations.
2 Timothy 2:2 (KJV): “And the things that thou hast heard of me among many witnesses, the same commit thou to faithful men, who shall be able to teach others also.”
Reflection:
Who is someone in your life you could invite to learn and grow with you in following Jesus? What is one way you can encourage or invest in them this week?
