Lifelong Discipleship - Three Dimensions of Discipleship

Mike Woods
Colossians 2:2

Jesus called us to both be disciples and make disciples, meaning this is a key aspect of following Christ. Discipleship, however, is not something that is necessary just at one point in our lives. While the focus of discipleship changes over time, there are dimensions to it that are present in every stage of our spiritual lives.

Bonhoeffer - Community Under the Word

Dennis McCallum
Ephesians 2:14

Dietrich Bonheoffer, a leading figure in the Christian church in Nazi Germany, became the director of the Confessing Church's underground seminary. During his time there, he lived with a dozen or more Christian men in community, something that resembles Xenos' ministry house model today in some ways. From Bonheoffer, we can learn keys to rich community, including being wary of romanticizing community and being watchful that we are living under the word in this area. This means that in the context of community we are practicing confession, thankfulness, self-control, and humility.
