I need to make disciple-making disciples.
#Pastor yoda how to#
They have to know how to share their faith, teach some scripture, how to study their Bible and show others how to study the Bible.
That I am teaching them to be coaches, disciple-makers, teachers and shepherds. I have to make sure the people I disciple not only know how to disciple others, but actually do it. I have learned a lot, but what do I do with that information? Do I just use it and become the expert? Sure if I want everyone to come to me to be discipled, but that doesn’t seem like the model Jesus left at all. I have a seminary degree, some certifications, a few awards and lots of hours of classes, conferences, and lots of books. Anyway, one of the things I am learning in my role is that I have learned a lot. I’m not even a real pastor, I’m an associate pastor. Luke couldn’t just keep the information to himself, he needed to train a new generation of Jedi. At the end of his muppet life (In Return of the Jedi, there was no CGI), he told his young student Luke Skywalker to “pass on what you have learned”. For being a little green guy, he is very wise in some of the things he instructs, and we would be wise to take them to heart. We then have wise individuals in our midst, we have some wisdom in books and then there is the Jedi Master. There are a few places to go and find good solid wisdom.
