Summary

Have you ever considered what it truly means to know Jesus? How would you start that journey? In this program, Chip explores practical ways to deepen your relationship with Christ. He continues studying three simple practices Jesus modeled throughout the Gospels–that can help you build a more resilient faith- and develop a closer walk with Jesus.

Main Points Introduction:
  • How can we address the discipleship deficit?
I. The problem
  • There is a need for discipleship
II. The invitation of Jesus
  • Jesus invites us to a life of abundance and purpose.
III. We must come to Jesus and learn from Him if we are to experience the life He promises
  • We must take His Yoke and learn from Him.
IV. Coming to Jesus is an event and a lifelong process of learning to follow His example and His teaching
  • The event = salvation - John 3:16
  • The process = discipleship - Matthew 4:19
  • The person = the path - John 14:6
V. Jesus practiced “the way” of living in dependency on the Spirit and submission to the Father
  • He came Before God
  • He did life In Community
  • He was On Mission 24/7
VI. Jesus taught His disciples what was required to continually experience the supernatural life He gave them
  • Abiding in Christ - John 15:1-11
  • Loving each other - John 15:12-17
  • Witnessing to the world - Matthew 28:18-20
VII. Until we grasp “the heart of God” and the why of discipleship, we will be destined to methods and programs that lead to discouragement, legalism, or self-righteousness.
  • Because of what Jesus did we can: know Him, love Him and serve Him.

Has anyone ever taken the time to sit down and show you how to really get to know God?

0:08.6

Well, a bricklayer did that for me when I was a young Christian, and it changed the whole course of my life.

0:14.9

If you want to get to know Jesus, if you want to learn to come before him and really hear his voice, then stay with me. That's

0:23.2

what we're going to do today. Thanks for joining us for this edition of Living on the Edge with

0:29.8

Chip Ingram. Chip's our Bible teacher for this international teaching and discipleship ministry,

0:35.2

and today we're continuing to help Christians live like Christians as we pick up in our series,

0:40.3

Bio, three essential practices to becoming more like Jesus.

0:44.3

And to review, those three practices are built into the word, bio.

0:48.3

B is for before God.

0:50.3

I is for in community, and O is for on mission. Now last time Chip laid a lot of

groundwork for how Jesus embodied these habits and taught them to his disciples. So if

1:19.2

Most Christians I've met have never had anyone help them learn the ways of Jesus.

1:25.3

No one sat down with them and said, I know it's a big book and

1:29.1

it might be hard to understand, but believe me, with a little work just like playing the piano

1:34.2

or the guitar or learning to become a good basketball player, soccer player, whatever your sport,

1:39.8

you know, there's vocabulary to learn. There's some skills to learn. And with practice, you actually can learn to study the Bible because it was written for the common people.

I was a brand new Christian.
