From our Senior Pastor
“Go therefore and make disciples of all nations.
. .” Matthew 16:19a
Following Jesus’ resurrection from the dead, he
gives this instruction to his disciples: that they are to go and
make disciples of people of every land and nation. During the
season of Lent, we reviewed the different Marks of Discipleship,
particularly as described by Pastor Michael Foss’ use of the
acronym “ PoWeR
SuRGe.”
The capital letters stand for
Pray
daily, Worship
weekly, Read
scripture regularly, Serve
in and beyond the congregation,
Relationships
with Christian friends, and
Giving of time, talent and
treasure. These activities are the things that both give
evidence of a follower of Jesus, and are the ways in which
followers of Jesus grow as disciples of the Lord. For us to be
effective in bringing others to Christ and making them
disciples, it is imperative that we are disciples ourselves, and
that we engage in practicing these Marks of Discipleship.
Jesus’ commission is for the Church of every
age, for in every age there are people for whom Christ died,
people whom Jesus wants as his own. Jesus chooses and sends
disciples into this world to call others to this relationship
with him. Jesus commissions us to go, make disciples.
May we live as disciples of Christ for the sake
of our Lord.
- Pastor Karl M. Richard
