"Then Jesus came to them and said, 'All authority in heaven and on earth has been given to me. Therefore go and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, and teaching them to obey everything I have commanded you. And surely I am with you always, to the very end of the age.”
-Matthew 28:18-20

Questions for Small Groups
  1. The sermon indicated that Sunday morning (worship service, sermon, community, programming for children and youth) is a key event for attracting, retaining, and growing disciples. How does this relate to your own experience? Is there more to disciple-making than Sunday morning?
  2. What was the “Three Buckets” illustration from the sermon? According to the illustration, how do “stuck” churches operate? How do growing churches operate?
  3. What do you think about applying the Three Buckets principle at Runnymede Community Church? Does it make sense to prioritize Sunday morning? Would you make modifications to the Three Buckets principle?
