ROOTS DISCIPLESHIP CHALLENGE Week 6 / Vision-Casting
So far in our journey of discipleship we have learned about the Essentials of Prayer, Care, Truth, and Accountability. This week we finish up our Five Essentials of Discipleship talking about Vision Casting: inspiring our disciple to take the next step.
As we’ve shared before, with each Essential there is a question to ask during the discipleship meeting. For Vision Casting, the question is: What’s the next step?
The heart behind this Essential is helping those we are investing in move forward in their relationship with God. Vision Casting really deals with the immediate and future actions of our disciple. As we walk alongside the person God has placed in our life, we want to help them dream about the vision God might have for their life in the future, while also helping them make practical changes today. If we will let Him, God will often use us to speak encouragement and truth into a person’s life, helping them utilize their unique personality, giftings, and resources for the glory of God.
We might never know this side of eternity how one encouraging word, challenge to share more boldly, or go on a short-term mission trip is used by God to transform our disciple’s future!
Hope you have an awesome week!
Blessings,
Pastor Dave

24 And let us consider how to stir up one another to love and good works, 25 not neglecting to meet together, as is the habit of some, but encouraging one another, and all the more as you see the Day drawing near.
