Evangelism And Discipleship
The two main parts of the Christian faith are evangelism and discipleship. Together, they show that we are called to preach the Gospel and make disciples of all countries.
As we move forward, we begin a journey to understand the Great Commission and the amazing honour of making followers for Christ.
The Great Commission
Jesus gave His disciples a holy purpose at the end of His time on earth: to go into all the world and make disciples of everyone there.
This part talks about the most important commandment of the Great Commission and why Christians must share the Gospel with confidence and conviction.
Go And Make Disciples
Matthew 28:19-20 (NIV) – “Therefore go and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, and teaching them to obey everything I have commanded you. And surely I am with you always, to the very end of the age.”

Romans 10:14 (NIV) – “How, then, can they call on the one they have not believed in? And how can they believe in the one whom they have not heard? And how can they hear without someone preaching to them?”
Sharing The Gospel
1 Peter 3:15 (NIV) – “But in your hearts revere Christ as Lord. Always be prepared to give an answer to everyone who asks you to give the reason for the hope that you have. But do this with gentleness and respect.”
Making Disciples
Evangelism is not merely about proclaiming the Gospel but also about nurturing and disciplining believers to grow in their faith and walk with Christ.
This section explores the vital role of teaching, mentoring, and discipleship in the life of a believer and the transformative power of discipleship in action.
Teaching And Mentoring
2 Timothy 2:2 (NIV) – “And the things you have heard me say in the presence of many witnesses entrust to reliable people who will also be qualified to teach others.”
Hebrews 10:24-25 (NIV) – “And let us consider how we may spur one another on toward love and good deeds, not giving up meeting together, as some are in the habit of doing but encouraging one another and all the more as you see the Day approaching.”
Discipleship In Action
Philippians 2:3-4 (NIV) – “Do nothing out of selfish ambition or vain conceit. Rather, in humility value others above yourselves, not looking to your own interests but each of you to the interests of the others.”
