All Converts Are Disciples

 I recently heard someone state that the reason the church ministries they had created failed was because they had only made converts and not disciples.  What they really meant was that these believers had never matured.  It is clear from God’s Word that all converts are disciples who have started, and I emphasize started, on the path to become mature reproducing disciples.  Unfortunately, new disciples can fail to move on to maturity.  This can be changed!  It is already happening around the world as pastors, leaders and emerging leaders become shepherd leaders who can take disciples through all the stages of discipleship to make disciples who make disciples.  Check it out at www.hisheartmyheart.org

Transformational Shepherd Leadership

What comes to mind when you hear, "Biblical Leadership?"  A number of years ago I was asked to create a graduate level class for a Master's of Ministry degree called "Biblical Leadership."  After carefully investigating all the different Seminary and University curriculums with a leadership class, I didn't find any with this title.  That lead me to investigate what "Biblical Leadership" involved.  What I discovered was that the primary metaphor in the Word of God for Biblical Leadership was that of a Shepherd.  There were other supportive metaphors like Servant, Slave, and others too.  However, Shepherd Leadership was in fact what we should call Biblical Leadership.  As a result, I began a ministry in 2017 to pastors, leaders, and emerging leaders called Transformational Shepherd Leadership.  The goal is to equip these leaders to be Shepherd Leaders who can take disciples through all the stages of discipleship to make disciples who make disciples.  Interested?  Take a look at www.hisheartmyheart.org
