Discipling and retention

[Rhoni]

There are things I have noticed in the past decade that may be why we, as Apostolics, have difficulty building churches.

Discipling a new convert is a time consuming and selfless task. My mother was what I consider to be a super-soulwinner. Our home was open to every hurting person, family in the neighborhood. We children would babysit for free, Mom & Dad took groceries to needy families, and Mom talked and prayed with people all day every day. She won hundreds to the Lord and they are still in the church.

Today, it appears, that we are not taking time to befriend, hold Bible studies, counsel, and fellowship new converts.

What is your church's views on disciplining?
