Can You Be a Christian and Not Be a Disciple?

Church doctrines of grace and salvation can sometimes hinder us from fostering the expectation that we should be and make disciples. Do our current evangelism and discipleship models fall short of producing genuine followers of Jesus?

This week on the Everyday Disciple Podcast, we explore the importance of reclaiming a strong understanding of the gospel and the vital link between conversion and discipleship. Joining us is Bill Hull, a “discipleship evangelist” (a term I adore!) and author of several bestselling discipleship classics.

In This Episode You’ll Learn:

  • A historical definition of “conversion” that you’ll find clarifying.
  • Why conversion and discipleship are two sides of the same coin.
  • The problems the Church experiences having split (or ignored) these two functions.
  • Why having a bigger view of the gospel is the solution to this problem.

Get started here…

A person stands at a fork in the road deciding if they will truly become a follower and disciple of Jesus or merely a church-attending believer.

From this episode:

“You’ll never make a disciple from a non-discipleship gospel. A gospel that does not include disciples making disciples, and all true Christians are disciples of Jesus, is actually a very truncated gospel and not really the gospel Jesus proclaimed and preached.”
