3 Session 5 REPRODUCIBLE DISCIPLE MAKING PROCESS Presented by Jim Putman & Luke Yetter: Real Life Ministries - Post Falls, ID 3 UNDERSTANDING THE DISCIPLESHIP PROCESS REPRODUCIBLE DISCIPLESHIP PROCESS: There is an understandable reproducible discipleship process. The leader (discipler) has a clear understanding of the discipleship process (his part). Also the leader understands where the person (disciple) is spiritually and helps provide what is needed from a human perspective for them to grow spiritually through the stages of discipleship (their part) and understands only GOD can do his part. STAGES OF PHYSICAL GROWTH: DEAD INFANT (0-2 YRS. OLD) CHILD (3-12 YRS. OLD) YOUNG ADULT (13-25 YRS. OLD) PARENT (26 YRS. OLD) STAGES OF SPIRITUAL GROWTH: DEAD: People in this stage have not yet accepted Christ as Lord and Savior. They may completely reject God, they may be seeking God, they may be spiritual, they may even claim to know God or be a Christian when, in reality, they are their own god. INFANT: People in this stage have accepted Christ, but haven t moved much past that point. They can be new believers or they might be stagnant, long- time Christians. Life is generally all about them and their needs. CHILD: People in this stage are growing in their relationship with the Lord and are also beginning to grow in their relationship with other Christians. They are applying God s Word in their life and allowing others to walk beside them in their journey following Christ. However, it s still mostly about them - their needs, comfort, etc. YOUNG ADULT: People in this stage are making a big shift from being self- centered to more others- centered. They re beginning to understand their role as a giver, rather than a taker ministering to others, putting others first being doers of the Word. PARENT: People in this stage have a solid understanding of God s Word and a deep, abiding relationship with the Father. They are living out God s Word daily in their own life. They are others- centered and God- dependent. They are able to reproduce mature disciples of Jesus by inviting others to follow them as they follow Christ.
