DR. EMILY McGOWIN

Professor of Theology at Wheaton College

Dr. McGowin helps us think through the practicality of Jesus’ call to discipleship.

Main Session: Why Discipleship?

Possible Discussion Questions/Activities

1. What is the importance of being “sold out” when it comes to discipleship (why are His demands practical and smart)?

2. In which area(s) of your life are you hesitant to submit to God? Why?

3. What are practical ways we can become faithful apprentices of Jesus?

4. How can we let go of our earthly resources and identities that we tend to cling to?

5. What are effective practices we can implement in our lives to “loosen” grip on the things of this world that distract us from our mission in Christ?

6. How do we pursue discipleship in our Family Group/Stronghold/Discipleship Small Group?
