The Real Work of Ministry Series 4 (Discipleship & Disciples)

Moving on from the previous sermons in this series, Pastor Tolu Ayeni explained why reading and truly understanding the Bible requires guidance from pastoring teachers — and why patience and context matter when studying Scripture. We learn that the authority of the New Testament is rooted in the Old Testament, showing how both are deeply connected.We also look at the real heart of the Great Commission: not just preaching, but raising disciples. True biblical church growth happens when we go out to seek the lost, bring them into the local church, and train them under shepherds who themselves are accountable. Discipleship means ongoing teaching, care, and accountability — ensuring that faith is built to last, and that every believer is equipped to do the same for others.
