Christian, Look To and Learn From Older Saints - by Graham Heslo

Found here. A very good article. 

-------------------------

What this article addresses is a fundamental deficit in our churches, the pressing need in for true discipleship. That is, older, godly Christians one-on-one with younger, inexperienced Christians. 

But what churches typically offer is a Sunday service, a mid-week service, and small groups. These are not discipleship.

The result of our failure to disciple is that the sheep remain sheep all their lives. Nothing is demanded from them except their polite attendance on Sunday, and that their tithe check clears.

This should not be.
