What kind of disciple do you wish to be in 2023?

Do I want to go with the flow or rise above the flow? Be mediocre with mediocre results or become a strong person of faith? Today’s Motivation provides a checklist that may give you a fresh perspective on who you are, your goals, and your deeper beliefs. The checklist appears below:

  1. Christianity without Christ as its leader
  2. Salvation without repentance and regeneration
  3. Worship without in-depth, healthy Bible preaching
  4. Spirituality without the Holy Spirit
  5. Intimacy with God without persistent prayer
  6. Religion without life change
  7. Baptisms without evangelism
  8. Maturity without discipline (discipleship)
  9. Success without personal holiness
  10. God’s presence without waiting on God
  11. “Let the fire fall” without revival
  12. Feelings without faith

DO YOU AGREE?  Will you be part of the solution?

Tom Swartzwelder was born again at the age of nine in an old-fashioned revival meeting. Tom received his B.A. from Tennessee Temple University and his M. Div from Luther Rice Seminary. He has pastored for nearly forty years in both bi-vocational and full-time roles. He provides practical how-to-do-ministry resources for the disciples of Jesus Christ. Tom’s latest book is “God Speaks–Today!”
