People loved to be discipled. We enjoy it when people truly see us and want to pour into us. I think all of us desire to have other people teach us the Bible, guide us in faith, and have meaningful conversations about things that matter.
Very few want to disciple others. We have a long list of excuses. We don’t have the time and are so busy. We don’t believe we know enough about the Bible to teach someone else. We think we have not been a Christian long enough to guide another believer. If we are honest, down deep, we know that our lives are a mess, and we don’t want to let anyone see the truth of our struggles.
You do see the quandary this creates. Many people want something that few are willing to offer.
Until people are willing to assist others in growing their faith, the Church will always have a problem.
