Making a Plan to Make Disciples with Matt Dabbs

In this episode of the Radically Christian Bible Study Podcast, we tackle an essential question: How do we make disciples? Many Christians struggle with understanding and implementing practical steps to disciple others, especially beyond traditional church settings. In this conversation, Wes McAdams and guest Matt Dabbs explore this challenge, addressing the difficulties of living out discipleship in everyday life and the common lack of a structured approach to making disciples.
The discussion dives into biblical concepts of discipleship, including how Jesus taught his followers to live, learn, and teach others. The conversation is grounded in passages like Matthew 4:19 and 2 Timothy 2:2, showing how Jesus' model of discipleship is both simple and reproducible. You'll discover practical insights into living out this mission and why disciple-making should be an ongoing process for every believer.
Our guest, Matt Dabbs planted Backyard Church in Auburn, Alabama, and has been in ministry for 22 years. He is passionate about equipping others for kingdom work and has a unique ability to make disciple-making practical and accessible. His experience in various ministries have given him valuable insights into both the theory and practice of disciple-making.

I’m not so sure that Matt’s approach to conversing with a nonbeliever is gonna work as he explained. First of all how can one disciple a nonbeliever? Secondly, asking a nonbeliever to pray to God and expecting God to answer is futile. Thirdly, the way he suggests the person should pray is a prayer that’s desperately lacking faith! I like your podcast Wes, but I think this guy is way off.
