If you've been discipling for ten years or more, where are those disciples now? Are they walking with God? Are they bearing fruit?

Paul said to Barnabas, “Let’s go back and visit all our friends in each of the towns where we preached the Word of God. Let’s see how they’re doing.”*

I just got an email from an intern who went through our ministry ten years ago and is now a missionary in Costa Rica.

She said: “My summer serving in Mexico was so life-changing. My world view was broadened, and I began asking God to use me in the ways I was seeing him use you and Karen and your family.”

If you don't have disciples in your life, let me encourage you to reach out to them and see how they are doing. The investment you've made may be more important than you realize.

 

*Acts 15:36
