Listen "Go and Teach: The True Meaning of Making Disciples"

Episode Synopsis

In this word study, we dive deep into the Great Commission — “Go ye therefore, and teach all nations.” What does “teach” really mean? From the Greek word “mathēteuō” (Strong’s G3100) — to be a disciple, to enroll students, to train and equip — we uncover the heart of Jesus’ call to His followers. This message explores the difference between simply “making” disciples and truly guiding others to become disciplined learners of Christ. Through scripture, word study, and spiritual reflection, we see that discipleship begins with hearing the gospel, receiving new birth, and growing in understanding through the Spirit — the true Teacher. A powerful reminder that the call to “teach all nations” is really a call to invite, instruct, and inspire others to know God deeply and walk in His ways.
