Series Making Disciples
The Soldier, the Athlete, and the Farmer
Scott closes the disciple-making series by walking through Paul's three metaphors in 2 Timothy 2 and showing that our weakness, not our competence, is what qualifies us to make disciples.
Scott came to close the disciple-making series this week. It was day seventeen of the boot camp, the last one, and he warned us up front that we were in for more stories than we could count. He wasn’t exaggerating. Underneath all of them sat a few verses in 2 Timothy 2, where Paul hands his young disciple three working portraits and tells him to think hard about each.
If you’re sitting there sure you need to grow up first, or clean up your mess before you could ever be qualified to make a disciple, what if the mess is the very thing that qualifies you?
