Deliberate Discipleship 2

Training vs. Trying

October 6, 2021 • Jose Ferrer • 1 Corinthians 9:24–26

In this second lesson of our Deliberate Discipleship series, we look at the idea of training to become more like Jesus. No matter how hard we may try to do something, unless we train for it, we will not be able to do it.

November 3, 2021 • Jose Ferrer • Matthew 7:24–27, Colossians 3:17, John 14:11–12

In our final lesson we talk about the “doing” part of discipleship. We’ve talked some theological points as to why we do deliberate discipleship. Also gave some practical guides to things we can do, so what remains? How do we now apply the things we learned over the last several weeks into our lives?

Deliberate Discipleship 5

October 27, 2021 • Jose Ferrer • Galatians 6:8, 1 Peter 2:11

Discipleship to Jesus goes way beyond baptism into him. We have to become more like our Lord and walk with him, partnering with Him in His work. The spiritual disciplines are a practice to help us in the pursuit to become more like Jesus. Disciplines are simply activities that help us to be able to do the things we do that we would not be able to do otherwise.

Deliberate Discipleship 4

October 20, 2021 • Jose Ferrer • 2 Peter 1:5–8, John 13:34–35, 1 John 4:20

As disciples of Jesus, we are in process. More than the gift of the forgiveness of our sins, God intends that you and I become more like His son. You and I are partners now in the divine work of redeeming humanity and bringing kingdom, that is God’s kingdom here on earth. So as we are in process, Peter gives us some practicals to help us in our journey. He says that if we not only have these qualities but that they are increasing than we will not fail at being effective in our knowledge of Jesus.
