Will they break out of the churches to be his Church—to be, without human force or violence, his mighty force for good on earth, drawing the churches after them toward the eternal purposes of God? And, on its own scale, there is no greater issue facing the individual human being, Christian or not.”For this assignment, you will write an essay on: What is disciple-making, and why is it important to the 21st-century church?
