Fr. Ivan explains just four easy steps to evangelize on our mission as missionary disciples: look around, pray, approach and invite. The three attitudes to take this a step further are: be poor, approach people without second intentions, and approach people with joy.

We'll uncover how to let Jesus disciple your motives, break inner resistance, and restore joyful obedience.

Shawn, Cullan, Justin and "Other Justin" dive verse by verse into Matthew 4:12-4:22.Jesus Begins to Preach and He Calls His First Disciples

Message Summary (By OpenAI) “Lord, Teach Us to Pray: Part One – Your Kingdom Come, Your Will Be Done” By Pastor Bryan Hudson, D.Min. DOWNLOAD KEYNOTE SLIDES This message begins a multi-part teaching series on prayer, focusing on Jesus' instruction to His disciples: “Your kingdom come, your will be done on earth as it is in heaven.” Dr. Hudson emphasizes that what is often called “The Lord's Prayer” is more accurately the “Disciples' Prayer” or the “Model Prayer.” It teaches how to approach God in prayer with sincerity, humility, and purpose. Key Points: 1. The Priority of Prayer  The disciples were drawn to the fervency and consistency of Jesus' prayer life. From this they asked, "Lord, teach us to pray." Jesus warned against hypocritical, public-only displays of prayer and encouraged believers to pray in secret—where God sees and rewards openly. Prayer is both relational and rewarding when practiced sincerely. 2. Understanding “Your Kingdom Come” The kingdom of God is not just a future destination—it's a present reality that must be manifested in believers' lives. Kingdom means the King's domain—where God's will is acknowledged and obeyed. Saying “Your will be done in earth” refers not only to the world but to our own lives (earthen vessels). 3. Six Types of Prayer (from Ephesians 6:18 and elsewhere): Ephesians 6:18 Amplified “Pray at all times—on every occasion, in every season—in the Spirit, with all [manner of] prayer and entreaty. To that end keep alert and watch with strong purpose and perseverance, interceding in behalf of all the saints (God's consecrated people).” Supplication: Specific, detailed requests to God. Being clear in prayer allows for deeper trust and reception of God's wisdom. Intercession: Standing in the gap for others, often with the help of the Holy Spirit who knows the will of God. Agreement: Unified prayer that requires prior alignment of understanding and wisdom before making requests together. Thanksgiving: Gratitude to God in all circumstances, as seen when Paul and Silas gave thanks even in prison. Dedication: Offering ourselves and others to God's purposes. Example: Jesus' and Stephen's prayers of surrender. Prayer of Faith: A Spirit-enabled, unwavering trust in God that brings healing, deliverance, and resurrection power. 4. Immersion in the Kingdom LUKE 17:21 Nor will they say, ‘See here!' or ‘See there!' For indeed, the kingdom of God is within you.  Just like language immersion is necessary to learn fluency, kingdom immersion is required to truly live by God's will. This immersion makes the kingdom personal—not just a religious idea, but a lifestyle of obedience and transformation. True kingdom living demands submission of the will and shapes our desires, speech, and behavior. 5. Becoming the Kingdom When the kingdom comes and you become kingdom:  You can say “Lord, Your will be done, in earth (in me), as it is in heaven.” Saying “Your kingdom come” is not about waiting for something to arrive, but about becoming kingdom—letting God reign in our lives. When we are kingdom people, we can truly pray, “Your will be done in earth, in me, as it is in heaven.” Conclusion & Next Steps Dr. Hudson encourages the congregation to prepare for a 40-day prayer focus beginning with the Prayer Summit on July 23. The journey into prayer and kingdom living must be intentional, immersive, and led by the Spirit—not just casual or intellectual. Final Thought: Prayer is not just a spiritual exercise but the gateway to kingdom living. When we truly learn to pray, we don't just ask for things—we align ourselves with God's will and become vessels for His purpose on the earth.

As Jesus sends out the seventy-two disciples to prepare the villages for his arrival, we are reminded that God sends us out into the world to proclaim the Good News today. (Lectionary #102) July 5, 2025 - Cathedral of Christ the King - Superior, WI Fr. Andrew Ricci - www.studyprayserve.com  

"Discipleship" is often a big theme inside of many church buildings. But when we are told to be disciples, what does it mean? What pops into your mind? What do you need to do to get there? Is it your level of dedication? Your commitment to God? To the church corporation? To unwavering Bible reading and prayer? Maybe you just automatically think of the twelve that followed Jesus ... and that you should do the same and "follow Him." A disciple is defined as a student or pupil—in other words—someone who learns from another. It was a significant part of the culture in Bible times to become like the teacher. Most who consider themselves disciples today are the result of having learned tenets and dogma from their church denomination (which may or may not have much to do with the gospel). While growing in the knowledge of the truth and learning more about God and the gospel can be a good thing to *do,* it does not make you who you *are.* It may surprise some to find out the word 'disciple' never appears even once in any of the New Testament epistles ... indicating it is not meant to be a part of your identity in Christ. --Available on Amazon - "Clash of The Covenants: Escaping Religious Bondage Through the Grace Guarantee" https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0713ZSKY7

We aren't satisfied with just being disciples when we are called to also make disciples. You're invited to join us and continue to be all in for your community.

The Holy Spirit changes who we are on the inside, but that difference is often observed on the outside. Disciples of Jesus should possess faithfulness, gentleness, and self-control.

Jesus speaks with the disciples of John the Baptist, reminding them that there are moments in our spiritual lives for both fasting and feasting.  (Lectionary #382) July 5, 2025 - Cathedral Rectory - Superior, WI Fr. Andrew Ricci - www.studyprayserve.com  

Born in Trebizond, he was educated in Constantinople, then entered into ascetic life. Seeking greater reclusion, he went to the Holy Mountain to live in silence. But many others gathered around him, and in time he was forced to build the monastery known as the Great Lavra. As construction was being planned, he beheld the Mother of God, who miraculously brought forth water from a rock near the site, and promised him that she would be the abbess of his monastery. He died when the newly-constructed dome of the monastery collapsed while he and six of his brethren were working on it.

By Lud Kiramidjian Jr - Speaker: Lud Kiramidjian Date: 7/5/25 Early in the ministry of Jesus Christ, Jesus spoke two similar parables that are misunderstood or ignored by much of traditional Christianity.

Jesus encounters two men possessed by demons who reveal the Lord's divine identity and true authority. (Lectionary #379) July 2, 2025 - Cathedral Rectory - Superior, WI Fr. Andrew Ricci - www.studyprayserve.com  

Pastor Danielle Frazer reminds us that the peace Jesus gives isn't tied to our circumstances but to his constant presence, holding us steady even when life feels chaotic.

Garth Heckman The David Alliance TDAgiantSlayer@Gmail.com    NO TDA over the 4th of July Weekend… But I will see you on Monday the 7th.    When did it happen? You thought you were good at something and then realized you had so much more growth ahead of you. When you had more questions than answers. When you realized this is the secret sauce to mastering something. When you understood you should have done this a long time ago.     When I was taking guitar my teacher Jeff Schroedl was amazing. He still is. His band Altered 5 is a blues band that has won numerous awards.    Matthew 28:18Then Jesus came to them and said, “All authority in heaven and on earth has been given to Me. 19Therefore go and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit, 20and teaching them to obey all that I have commanded you. And surely I am with you always, even to the end of the age.   *Key point: Great leaders don't create followers, they create leaders. Great Disciples don't create followers of Christ, they create people who create followers of Christ.    In these few simple verses we tend to focus in on Power and Authority, the Making of Disciples and even baptizing new converts and we even highlight that this is a command… but what do we miss. Well by logical conclusion one can determine that the key to all of these is Obedience.    Five key reasons you need to learn discipleship: Obedience to Jesus' Command: Jesus directly instructed his followers to "Go and make disciples of all nations...". Learning discipleship is an act of obedience to this fundamental command, demonstrating our willingness to follow his instructions. This obedience is a way of expressing our love for him…   Obedience is greater than sacrifice - thats what scripture says. Without obedience you are just like a non Christian except you will go to heaven… You will be judged for your disobedience and your lack of following through on his commands.    Spiritual Growth and Maturity: Discipleship is crucial for ongoing spiritual development. It's not about reaching a point of "knowing enough" but about continuously growing in Christ. It fosters a deeper understanding of biblical truths, the application of faith in daily life, and the development of Christ-like character.   You ask anyone who moved from student into the role of a teacher and ask them which was more challenging, which taught them more… without a doubt it is being a teacher. When you disciple someone that is when you really start to grow and mature in Christ.    Building Stronger Relationships: Discipleship creates opportunities to build deep, authentic relationships with other believers. These relationships provide a supportive environment for mutual encouragement, accountability, and the sharing of life experiences. This strengthens the Christian community and fosters a sense of belonging.   People who go through war together have an unbreakable bond. Discipleship is many times war… spiritual warfare, but war none the less.    Equipping and Empowering Others: Discipleship is a process of intentional mentorship where experienced believers guide and nurture newer ones in their spiritual journey. This empowers individuals to live out their faith authentically and to make a positive impact in the world around them. It also plays a vital role in carrying the gospel to others, even in least-reached communities. Living a Life Reflecting Christ: Discipleship involves imitating Jesus' example in our lives. This means not just hearing his teachings but also living them out through love, service, and sacrifice. It's a lifelong endeavor to become more like him in character and actions. This process includes cultivating a heart of love for God and others, actively serving those in need, and sharing the gospel with those who haven't heard. 

In this episode, we dive into the final sermon of Part I of Grace Church's Follow Me series. Why does Jesus send his disciples out in Matthew 10 with no money, no bag, and instructions to heal the sick and cast out demons? What does it mean to be given authority by Jesus? And how should we understand being “sent” in a world that feels overwhelming and broken? We tackle other topics like: – What does real spiritual authority look like? – Who are the “worthy people” Jesus talks about? – Should modern Christians expect to heal and cast out demons? – And… what does “shake the dust off your feet” mean for us today?

In Mark 2, people came to ask Jesus why His disciples did not fast like the Pharisees. Jesus' response? A question and two cryptic metaphors. Pastor Mike Kelsey unpacks not only the significance of these metaphors but also what the answer to this question means for our search for the abundant life as Christians today. […] The post Why didn't Jesus' disciples fast? | Mark 2:18-22 | Mike Kelsey appeared first on Cross Point Church.

Jesus wants more than occasional church attendance or acts of philanthropy. It's not enough to be kind to neighbors and family. And it doesn't matter if you love and accept everyone or have great theological debates. Jesus wants disciples. He has called each every one of us to take up our cross and follow Him. On Sunday, June 29, 2025, Pastor Chad Gilligan taught about Three Things Disciples Do.

Finding Jesus in Unexpected Places // At the Disciple's Feet Matthew 20:28 (NIV)“Just as the Son of Man did not come to be served, but to serve, and to give his life as a ransom for many.” John 13:1-17 (NIV)“It was just before the Passover Festival. Jesus knew that the hour had come for him to leave this world and go to the Father. Having loved his own who were in the world, he loved them to the end. The evening meal was in progress, and the devil had already prompted Judas, the son of Simon Iscariot, to betray Jesus. Jesus knew that the Father had put all things under his power, and that he had come from God and was returning to God; so he got up from the meal, took off his outer clothing, and wrapped a towel around his waist. After that, he poured water into a basin and began to wash his disciples' feet, drying them with the towel that was wrapped around him. He came to Simon Peter, who said to him, ‘Lord, are you going to wash my feet?' Jesus replied, ‘You do not realize now what I am doing, but later you will understand.' ‘No,' said Peter, ‘you shall never wash my feet.' Jesus answered, ‘Unless I wash you, you have no part with me.' ‘Then, Lord,' Simon Peter replied, ‘not just my feet but my hands and my head as well!' Jesus answered, ‘Those who have had a bath need only to wash their feet; their whole body is clean. And you are clean, though not every one of you.' For he knew who was going to betray him, and that was why he said not every one was clean. When he had finished washing their feet, he put on his clothes and returned to his place. ‘Do you understand what I have done for you?' he asked them. ‘You call me ‘Teacher' and ‘Lord,' and rightly so, for that is what I am. Now that I, your Lord and Teacher, have washed your feet, you also should wash one another's feet. I have set you an example that you should do as I have done for you. Very truly I tell you, no servant is greater than his master, nor is a messenger greater than the one who sent him. Now that you know these things, you will be blessed if you do them.'” Mark 9:34-35 (NIV)“But they kept quiet because on the way they had argued about who was the greatest. Sitting down, Jesus called the Twelve and said, “Anyone who wants to be first must be the very last, and the servant of all.” Mark 10:45 (NIV)“For even the Son of Man did not come to be served, but to serve, and to give his life as a ransom for many.”     Luke 22:21-27 (NIV)“But the hand of him who is going to betray me is with mine on the table. The Son of Man will go as it has been decreed. But woe to that man who betrays him!”  They began to question among themselves which of them it might be who would do this. A dispute also arose among them as to which of them was considered to be greatest. Jesus said to them, ‘The kings of the Gentiles lord it over them; and those who exercise authority over them call themselves Benefactors. But you are not to be like that. Instead, the greatest among you should be like the youngest, and the one who rules like the one who serves.  For who is greater, the one who is at the table or the one who serves? Is it not the one who is at the table? But I am among you as one who serves.'” Mark 4:9 (NIV), Matt 11:15 (NIV)Whoever has ears to hear, let them hear.” Some Keys to Servanthood: 1.     Serving like Jesus means we move in humility, take action on behalf of others.Phil 2:8 (NIV)“And being found in appearance as a man, he humbled himself by becoming obedient to death.” 2.     Serving like Jesus means we engage compassionately.Matthew 9:36 (NIV)“When he saw the crowds, he had compassion on them, because they were harassed and helpless, like sheep without a shepherd.” 3.     Serving like Jesus means we must serve graciously.Luke 6:35 (NIV)“But love your enemies, do good to them, and lend to them without expecting to get anything back. Then your reward will be great, and you will be children of the Most High, because he is kind to the ungrateful and wicked.”             Galatians 5:13 (NIV)“You, my brothers and sisters, were called to be free. But do not use your freedom to indulge the flesh; rather, serve one another humbly in love.” 4.     Serving like Jesus, we must take time for people.1 Peter 4:10 (NIV)“Each of you should use whatever gift you have received to serve others, as faithful stewards of God's grace in its various forms.” Let your doing be done for the sake of the doing, not to be seen!

ARE YOU TRACKING??? DEVOTION DELIVERANCE AND FINALLY  Discipleship  Matthew 28:18Then Jesus came to them and said, “All authority in heaven and on earth has been given to Me. 19Therefore go and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit, 20and teaching them to obey all that I have commanded you. And surely I am with you always, even to the end of the age.   Gk: ENTEL-O-MY Commanded you - you are now held responsible until it comes to an end.   Your are responsible for what you know… if you don't act on what you know you will never understand or get the insight to the next level.    People run around looking for the next spiritual insight, tidbit and juicy greek insight… Well in the greek this word means this and its the 5th verse of the 6 chapter, and My brother is 5'6 and he quoted me this and now The spirit is moving me to command the heavenlies… blah blah blah You are trying to pretend like you are at a new level…but its just information. You will not know what you need to know until you do what you know to do. OR until you do what you know to do you will never know what is next for you to know!!   COMMAND = IF YOU DON'T FOLLOW THE FIRST COMMAND YOU WON'T GET THE NEXT ONE     Witnessing on bourbon street during Mardi Gras  The man goes ballistic… why did you tell me. WHY? Now I am responsible for what I know!      *I wish most Christians understood that.         Includes Evangelism Bible studies are good, but discipleship is best.  Discipleship that produces Disciples that produce Disciples… etc…     Matthew 25 the talents. You won't get more until you use what you have.     Mt. 25 The talents… you are stubborn man who expects THINGS to happen without apology me to make the most of my talent.
