This Sunday at Church: Pray for God to provide opportunities for you to disciple someone new at Church

I remember being the teenager invited to church who only went to be with friends. Then I believed in Jesus, but I still went to be with friends. Then I took my faith seriously, and I went to actively be part of Christ’s Body.

I also remember feeling like no one really mentored me. I knew there was active discipleship through the various people at church, but it did not feel like there was direct discipleship. Others my age were getting more attention, but it felt like their teaching was so basic, and I was looking for deeper things.

Looking back, I can now see how a few adults went out of their way to make time and try to help. May we also help young people and young believers know how much we try to help.
