At the end of Matthew’s Gospel, Jesus commissions His church to make disciples of all nations by baptizing and teaching – gathering the scattered and shepherding the gathered. It sounds simple, but real life is often complicated. We wish more people would worship each week. We want our Bible studies to be better attended. And we want to make a bigger impact on our community!
Join Rev. Dr. Heath Trampe, LCMS Director of Discipleship Ministry, for a discussion about witness, discipleship, and the many offerings available from the Office of National Mission. We will also take time to workshop outreach ideas pertinent to our communities. Heath will draw from his own doctoral work, well over a decade of implementation in the parish, and best practices from around the nation to facilitate the topic in a practical and applicable format.
