What is the most important agenda until Christ returns? Making disciples!  

This duty is all-encompassing. It involves families: “The father shall make known Your truth to the children” (Isa. 38:19). It involves churches: “commit [God’s word] to faithful men who will be able to teach others also” (2 Tim. 2:2). And it involves every country on earth: “Go therefore and make disciples of all the nations” (Matt. 28:19). 

The goal of the Making Disciples Conference is to address this full spectrum—to foment and fine-tune, by God’s grace, the practice of disciple-making in our homes, in our churches, and around the world. 

The conference will look with joy at our positive duties, but also plainly address where we’ve fallen short: So why are there so many evangelicals and so few disciples? Why is there such biblical illiteracy among people who call themselves Christians? 

The answer—which will be examined in depth—is for us to forsake apathy and embrace the discipleship mandate Christ gave, just before His ascension: 

“And Jesus came and spoke to them, saying, ‘All authority has been given to Me in heaven and on earth.  Go therefore and make disciples of all the nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit,  teaching them to observe all things that I have commanded you; and lo, I am with you always, even to the end of the age. Amen.’” (Matt. 28:18-20) 

Though the bigness of this charge can be daunting, the good news is this—Christ promised to be with us “always” as we make disciples in His name!  

The Bible brings us rich instruction on making disciples. We are shown: 

  • Disciples made in the home (Deut. 6:1-9)  
  • Disciples made in the church (2 Tim 4:2)  
  • Making disciples in Jerusalem, Judea, Samaria and to the end of the earth (Acts 1:7-8)  
  • The disciple whom Jesus loved (John 20:2)  
  • The disciple who gives a cup of cold water (Matt. 10:42)  
  • The disciple named Tabitha (Acts 9:36)  
  • The disciple named Timothy (Acts 16:1)  
  • The disciple who brings good tidings (Rom. 10:14-17)  
  • The tongue and the ear of a disciple (Isa. 50:4)  
  • The disciples who love one another (John 13:34-35)  
  • The disciple who is not above his teacher (Matt 10:24-25) 
  • Disciples who are unified (John 17:20-26) 
  • The secret disciple, Joseph of Arimathea (John 19:38) 
  • The disciple who brings out of his treasure things new and old (Matt. 13:52) 
  • The disciple who hates father and mother (Luke 14:26-27) 
  • The disciple who gives up all his possessions (Luke 14:33) 
  • Disciples who stir up love and good works (Heb. 10:24) 
  • Disciples in whom Jesus is glorified (John 17:9-10)  
  • Disciples sanctified by the truth (John 17:17)
