10 Principles for Local Mission
Pastor Winston Bosch, the Host of Tyrannus Hall was our guest for our previous episode and is again for this one. Earlier this year Winston was tasked by his elders to study and investigate how to improve Jubilee’s involvement in local mission. This study led him to write a document that would assist the elders and other leaders in the church to foster a love for the lost.
Winston wrote up 10 Principles for Local Mission. They are centred on The Great Commission. Winston has summarized Christ’s Great Commission for the church as GO! BAPTIZE! MAKE DISCIPLES! In the first installment, we dealt with the first 4 principles, which cover GO! and BAPTIZE! In this episode, we will deal with the on-going mandate for the church’s teaching ministry under MAKE DISCIPLES. We will close off with 4 other essential principles of a more general nature.
What does MAKE DISCIPLES look like?
III. TEACH: DISCIPLING NEW BELIEVERS
Principle 5: improve the second service
Principle 6: Use your small groups
Four other principles came to the forefront of this research:
Principle 7: we must be diligent in prayer
Principle 8: understand evangelism as healthy for the church
Principle 9: office-bearers play an important role
Principle 10: plan to plant new churches
