We all want to make disciples, but do we all mean the same thing when we say that?
A lead pastor, children's minister, student pastor, and parent might all agree that discipleship matters. Yet each could have a different picture of what it looks like in everyday life.
And those differences shape what we teach, what we prioritize, and how we equip people.
Shared language is a starting point. Shared understanding helps a church move in the same direction.
Here's a question worth asking your leadership team:
▫️When we say we're making disciples, could each of us clearly explain what that means and what it looks like in our church?
Clarity doesn't mean every ministry looks the same. It means we're working toward the same disciple-making vision, from childhood through adulthood.
