Disciples, not "Decisions"


In line at Puerto Vallarta restaurant in Redding, California

"Most of evangelism today is obsessed with getting someone to make a decision; the apostles, however, were obsessed with making disciples.... Evangelism that focuses on decisions short circuits and — yes, the word is appropriate — aborts the design of the gospel, while evangelism that aims at disciples slows down to offer the full gospel of Jesus and the apostles."
