Week 3 | The Ways of the Alongsider | Zach Mays

Topic: It's as simple as that...

Scripture: Luke 10:36-37

Disciple is a word that we use to refer to Jesus’ followers. It doesn’t just refer to his closest group of followers though. In his last conversation with his followers he told them to go and make all people disciples. We are supposed to become disciples of Jesus, who help others follow Jesus too.

That word, Disciple, also means to be a student. So the picture Jesus draws for us is each of us being his student, and at the same time teaching others to be students of Jesus too. Many of us have the desire to be a student of Jesus. We know he has a lot to teach us. There aren’t many of us though that feel like we have what it takes to teach others about him. Jesus would disagree though. He wants us to come alongside people in life in simple ways to share simple truths about him. If we do that, we can become followers of Jesus who lead others to follow him too.
