The Wesleyan Potluck-Wesleyan News and Commentary
Unleashing Disciples, Discipleship Tools, and Skipping Dessert-The Wesleyan Potluck Episode 5
Welcome to episode 5 of the Wesleyan Potluck: here’s a rundown of what we’ll be covering today:
In the Lineup we’ll discuss some great discipleship tools
The meal will feature a story from Dr. Wayne Schmidt on unleashed disciples
The Dessert Table will feature a great John Wesley quote on the people called Methodists
and the cleanup is where we will tell you how to become a part of the Potluck community.
The Lineup
Tim:
Crazy Love Small Group Study - Francis Chan (used in Australia with young adults)
Staff driven (Take them through books, 7 Habits/Stephen Covey, In the Name of Jesus/Nouwen) - the discussions were discipleship
Missions Trips - I started using missions trips as a form of discipleship. Rather than focusing on serving the people in another land, I made it an opportunity to learn from the other people and let the team ask questions. Therefore I became a guide of what God was trying to teach them rather than just the leader who knew it all.
Heath:
Multiply by David Platt and Francis Chan
Innovating Discipleship by Will Mancini
Building a discipling culture by Mike Breen
The Meal
Recent Wayne Schmidt article/directive on discipleship
The Dessert Table-We had to skip dessert on this episode
I am not afraid that the people called Methodists should ever cease to exist either in Europe or America. But I am afraid lest they should only exist as a dead sect, having the form of religion without the power. And this undoubtedly will be the case unless they hold fast both the doctrine, spirit, and discipline with which they first set out. -John Wesley
