As we continue to explore "missional discipleship," we now turn to the Gospel of John as a guide for practical disciple-making. We imitate Jesus, and in John 1:14, we are told that through the incarnation, Jesus was "among" us. Or, as Eugene Peterson once put it, He "moved into the neighborhood."

The Sower provides a missional model for us. The parable & explanation Jesus teaches in Matthew 13:3-9; 18-23 is like two sides of the same coin. What type of soil are you? As disciple-makers caught up in the mission of God, how can we sow quality seed to everyone, everywhere we go?

Pine Tree has a strong missional heartbeat. How can we take that missional enthusiasm and begin to equip everyone to be everyday disciple-makers? Understanding our time and place is important. We live in a mission field. We are a sent church, not just sent individuals. Psalm 137:1-4; Jeremiah 29:4-7; Luke 10:2
