1) Replacing = I step down and you take my place.
2) Reproducing = I empower you, and you start doing the same as I.
3) Multiplying = I empower you, and we both empower others, in turn.

The raising up of new leaders (guides, shephderds, elders) must keep apace with the formation of new cells.

After twenty years of ministry I began to ask myself about whether I had actually made disciples. My first answer was to point to the “crowds” that had been in my churches, but when the challenge was naming specific names, I had to admit there were very few who had gone on to become disciple makers, the end result of the process. In terms of results, I had “influenced” many but “discipled” only a few. That was a turning point.

So, while the three questions are enough, I’d add a fourth for my own benefit: Who are your disciples discipling and how are they doing?

I know that it’s not acceptable in this country to be critical. We must be either positive or quietly in agreement with authorities in the church or outside the church. Results are evident: church was higjacked by politics & the Devil’s economy instead of vise versa.

Leadership & multiplication can be developed through action only. That’s how Jesus Christ did it. Action is love expressed through:
-care
-help
-sensetivity
-diligence
-doing business with people we trust & like prefered in the Christian Community

with the final mesage of the Great Commission to Build the Kingdom of God on Earth.

There was no Church in the Former Soviet Union (which was built on communities) Yet in my 32 years of living there I had never met single mother, divorce person, diabetic, overweight person, allergetic, depressed, strssed out, … Yet we did not know Christ & freedoms of choice. I sincerely belive that Ameican Church is at the chross-roads where we can combine the advantages of both systems better then any other Church in history of humanity & better then any religion today on this earth.
