At the Lifeway Pipeline Leadership Conference in 2016, Paul Tripp spoke on how discipleship and leadership work together. Here is a bit of his talk:
“Discipleship is profoundly more than a set of strategies.”
“Discipleship is profoundly more than workable systems.”
“Discipleship is about the transformation of the heart.”
“Without the transformation of the heart, without a focus on the heart of every disciple of Jesus Christ, none of those things will ever produce what you’re seeking to produce.”
