I simply can’t get my mind off this chart. I hope that it will have the same impact on you. It is from Discipleship Essentials by Greg Ogden. The point is to contrast evangelism (addition) with discipleship (multiplication). In essence, if one person were to invest in making 2 disciples each year (VERY DOABLE), and then those 2 disciples would do the same, in 16 years there would be 65,536 disciples. By contrast if 1 person were to lead 365 people to faith each year (would certainly be wonderful!), the result after 16 years would be a much smaller net of 5840. 2 disciples a year. WHAT. ARE. WE. DOING? How can we help each other fulfill the task of making disciples the way Jesus did?
