The simplest view of the living church life cycle is this:
- Live in abiding Intimacy with Jesus
- Reach out in love to others
- Make disciples
- Gather
- Empower everyone to go and do the same
At the heart of this process is the imperative to make disciples. Alan Hirsch does a great job of describing one aspect of why this is so important.
