Helping someone pursue God is the greatest thing you can do in your life. Here's how to measure it.

Key Points:

  • When you’re just starting out, track the number of your invite “touches”. Eventually it’ll pay off!
  • When you’re actively investing in someone, track your topics in a discipleship journal. 
  • When you’re empowering someone who has begun mentoring, follow up monthly or quarterly and track it in your journal.
Talk About It
  1. What is your initial reaction to this topic? What jumped out at you?
  2. Read 2 Timothy 2:2. What are some ways to invite someone into a mentoring relationship? Make a list. Which methods are more appropriate for the people you’re trying to invite?
  3. How many “touches” do you expect it to take before someone’s ready to start meeting with you? How do you know when it’s time to move on and invite someone else?
  4. Explain how to keep a journal on your discipleship relationships. What are the benefits?
  5. Why is it important to eventually empower and release the person you’re discipling? How will your relationship change? Will you encourage them to track their discipling relationships? Why or why not?
  6. Write a personal action step based on this conversation.
