So, what does Jesus-like disciplemaking look like?We’re asked this question all the time by pastors and ministry leaders alike. Jesus-like disciplemaking differs from traditional 1-on-1 discipleship because it’s a way of life. It’s living relationally in mutual community with Kavanah through prayer, study, loving and C323 (Colossians 3:23) living.In true mutual community we share our gifting, practice “one anothering” and learn together in twos or threes (Matthew 18:20).

With Kavanah we experience the catalytic combination of God’s active presence and our intentional actions. We expect the Holy Spirit will transform us when we gather together in mutual relationships for inflow & overflow.

Through prayer, studying Scripture to know and share God, loving extravagantly, and living life as worship, together we make disciplemakers like Jesus did.

On April 12 & 13, twenty-seven Arizonans from Grace Bible Church of Phoenix gathered with Scott and me to begin living in mutual community with Kavanah. They actively engaged

in inflow and overflow as they dialogued in pairs and triplets. They grappled together over the application of Scripture and doing life together.
