| Point 2. Purpose for our lives: | (1) to be a fisher of men (2) to make a difference in peoples’ lives. |

| In our discipling relationships, they begin as Parent/Child Relationships and grow to become | Adult/Adult Relationships. As Jesus said, “[Now] you are my friends.” |
| Disciplers can hurt their relationships by... | not allowing “their” disciples to grow up. |
| Point 3. A sign of a maturing disciple is someone who | can admire the good things in his discipler and not be critical of their weaknesses and shortcomings |
| Disciplers are the ______ of “their” disciples because they are the _____. | spiritual ceiling. pace-setters. |
| 1 Corinthians 4:15-17 | The Corinth Church had many problems and Paul’s solution was to simply call them to imitate him, by imitating Timothy! This also allowed Paul to call “every church everywhere” to the exact same “doctrine and life.” |
| Sermon Tips: | 1. Preach your weaknesses – this wins over people’s hearts. 2. Share history of your congregation. This allows disciples to “see” that God has moved powerfully. Never forget that half of the OT is history and more than half of the NT is history! |

| 1 Thessalonians 2:11-12, 19-20 | Paul “encouraged, comforted and urged” the Thessalonian disciples like a father. Disciples should be our “hope, joy, crown and glory” before the Lord! |
| Ultimate goal for every disciple: | getting people to Heaven. Hardships and baptism must not get in the way! |
| The challenge of the lesson is... | to Glorify God by “bearing much fruit… fruit that will last!” |
