My friend Sean Eppers posted some content on the Woodlands Point Pastor’s blog that Tyler David and I did on “Ministry vs. Discipleship” for one of our staff meetings awhile ago. Below is a sample:
Ministry | Discipleship |
Reactive | Proactive |
Ministry tends to involve a much lower level of relational investment, and for both parties there is a relative degree of anonymity | Discipleship requires a high degree of vulnerability for both parties |
Meets immediate, felt needs | Transforms lives and success is replication |
Often times leads to immediate results and draws crowds | Often painstakingly slow and difficult with one step forward and two steps back |
You can find the rest here. Thanks for posting Sean!
