T.S. Elliot writes,

As found in The Disciple Making Pastor, T.S. Eliot, the poet writes, "I had the meaning but missed the experience."

Bill Hull continues, "Being in love with God is like being swept off your feet by a great symphony or standing before a painting like Rembrandt's Return of the Prodigal Son. It is an experience; it is to dwell in His presence, listen to His voice, and taste His goodness. Getting to know God this way takes some time and effort. It means opening the door on which Jesus knocks and inviting Him to have fellowship, It means putting yourself in a position to hear Him, to listen, to contemplate. It begins with our relationship with God. We read the Bible to submit to God, to know Him, to confess our sins, and to strengthen our hearts."

This intimacy with God reflects the heart of what we move our disciples into. I love being able to see this happen in America and in the hearts of the redeemed. When you meet these disciples you are pulled into the presence of Christ. This is truly what being a disciple is all about. We should be like magnets for Jesus.

Remember, what we use to draw them into is what we draw them to. We have only Jesus to offer. Our gatherings for worship are all about Jesus and His Holy Spirit's work. We have no service to attract we have only Jesus.

Like my friends in Haiti, when Jesus is all you have, Jesus is all you need. I love being in the Disciple Driven Church new wine skin. God is released to work when, where, and however in the world through the obedient Spirit led Body of Christ and even the others. I'm so blessed, today, not to mention free.
