Quite sometime. The human landscape, from one nation to another calls for serious prayers and engaging and re-engaging that the way out of human dilemma lies in the LORD Jesus word- "I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me."
The issue of discipling the nations becomes also very imperative. However, my observation is that the Church is not very coordinated about this -let me say this as I watched the region that I belong to. I would like to see a common front and comparing notes on what makes up basic discipleship and then a road-map for a life-long learning.
Equally important, I would like to see cooperation among those who are involved in discipleship.
Holistic discipleship, if we would be true to ourselves goes beyond laying out discipleship basics or putting in place a life-long learning. We need to give to our nation or people a biblical worldview...the well-being of the people we are discipling -development cannot be divorced from our message and actions.
Among some important books I would like to see and be available in Nigeria for disciplers and disciples alike -and get them translated but without strings. If anyone could be of help in Discipleship Network, please let me know.
