DISCIPLESHIP
(Caution: UNDER CONSTRUCTION. Please be patient.)
DISCIPLES ARE MADE, NOT BORN! 
As much as we would like to reach many people for Christ; however, our goal is not a big church but changed lives.
Greg Laurie firmly believes when he writes in his book, The Upside Down Church, "A vital small town church that is ignited for God is far more capable of setting the world on fire than a huge church that has turned into a social club."
In his polular book The Master Plan of Evangelism, Dr. Robert E. Coleman outines the methods that Christ used in training His disciples to win the world to God as following excerpt:
1. SELECTION
"It all started by Jesus calling a few men to follow Him. This reveals immediately the direction His evangelistic strategy would take. His concern was not with programs to reach the multitudes, but with men whom the multitudes would follow... Men were to be His method of winning the world to God.
Although Jesus did not neglect the mass and He based His evangelism on a plan that would meet their needs; nonethless He had to devote Himself primarily to a few men, rather than the masses, in order that the masses could at last be saved. This was the genius of His strategy.
A few people so dedicated in time will shake the world for God. Victory is never won by the multitudes.
It will be slow, tedious, painful and probably unnoticed by men at first, but the end result will be glorious, even if we don't live to see it. Seen this way, though, it becomes a big decision in the ministry. One must decide where he wants his ministry to count - in the momentary applause of popular recognition or in the reproduction of his life in a few chosen men who will carry on his work after he has gone. Really it is a question of which generation we are living for."
