When we decide to create a culture of real disciple making we will encounter resistance. But let’s not fool ourselves into thinking that the old way was the pain free way so the new way isn’t worth the trouble.
I hope you will consider subscribing to our Wineskins youtube channel. You can do that via the red subscribe button on the bottom left corner of this video. The channel is in its infancy so bear with us. We have plans for some great, collaborative content in 2019. I hope you will tune in!
