    Marks of Discipleship: Service
    How do we serve God? Matthew 25: 40 says “inasmuch as you did it to one of the least of these My brethren, you did it to Me.” When we serve each other, we serve God. Matthew 25: 23, 40 (NKJV)

    Marks of Discipleship: Community (Find Your Chair)
    We’ve discussed generosity, prayer, and personal worship. Today we look at how personal and corporate worship lead to community. While personal time with God is important, if that is all we do-we fall short of what God wants us to do. Psalm 46:10; Matthew 6:33, 18:20; Mark 6:27-32; (NKJV)

    Marks of Discipleship: Worship
    We’ve discussed generosity (in our money, time, and talents) and prayer (systematic, urgent, and sacrificial). Today we will discuss a third mark of discipleship-worship, in particular “personal worship”. Acts 20: 7; 1 Corinthians 16:2; Hebrews 10:25; Hebrews 13:15 (NKJV)

    Marks of Discipleship: Prayer
    Another mark of discipleship is prayer. Our prayer life should be systematic (everyday), urgent (addressing immediate needs and concerns), and sacrificial (giving up our own desires, possibly fasting, bending to God’s will). As you pray, you will become more intimate with the Lord and you become an extension of Him. Hebrews 5: 8; Matthew 6:7-8; Luke 18:1, 5:16; Mark 1:35; 1 Thessalonians 5: 17-18 (NKJV) Video unavailable.

    Marks of Discipleship-Generosity
    As we ready to begin a new year, it is a time for self-examination. As Christians, how generous are we? Do we look out for others? Do we give to further the gospel? Or are we selfish and self-centered. Do we make excuses for not sharing our wealth (whether it is large or small) with others? John 13: 34-35; Galatians 3: 28 (NKJV)
