Making Disciples This Easter

As Easter is this weekend, Sean explains that the church’s goal isn’t crowds but making disciples—passionate followers of Jesus who learn Scripture and obey it—often through intentional, relational, Biblical community groups with accountability and measurable habits like daily time in the Word and prayer. He discusses the need for pastors to have peer community, warns about ego on stage, affirms women’s role in discipleship, and emphasizes discipling within marriage and family while equipping all believers to disciple others.
