As we kick off this fresh series -- This is the Way We Role -- we talk about The Role of Scripture in Disciple-Making with our friend, Monica Vanover - a bible college graduate and woman in our spiritual family who is committed to the disciple-making process and God's Word to guide us and bring life to us. She shares with us how her mentor uses scripture in their relationship, and how she uses scripture in her own discipling relationships. (Secret: it begins with treasuring God's word yourself). We also talk about the importance of tailor-making the way you companion each person, considering their personal and unique story, knowledge, giftedness, learning differences, etc. Therefore, we can't short-circuit the relational component of disciple-making because we can't know these things about someone if we emphasize the transfer of information (knowledge) over doing life together (relationship).
