The Recap of Last Week's Retreat

As Promised, here is an excerpt of the lesson learned from the retreat at Zephyr Point. For the sake of time, I am writing it in outline format:

Discipleship and being close to God- Jeremiah 24:14-15
-The choice is mine to serve God.
-It comes from a Christlike heart
Psalm 18:30-35-God will make me great.

Evangelism
Philemon 1:6-In what ways am I sharing my faith in Christ?
Matthew 9:35-Do I have compassion for the lost?

Discipling (relationships within the Lord's church).
Proverbs 12:1-Not accepting correction=stupidity!
Hebrews 10:23-25-Spurring others on
Proverbs 19:20-listening to advice leads to wisdom (see also Proverbs 15:2)
Genesis 4:9-10-Am I my brother's (or sister's) keeper?

Afterward, I came to a conclusion that, without being close to God, the latter two will not be as effective. That is a lot I need to think about even a week later.
