The implication is that Christians are not representing the Kingdom of God well as salt and light. They are often the reason others turn away from the faith.\u00a0<strong>Rev. Ceasar Magueju<\/strong>\u00a0of AFM Zimbabwe, emphasized the urgent need for\u00a0<strong>intentional disciple-making<\/strong>\u00a0in the African church, not just as a program.<\/p><p class=\"mcePastedContent\"><strong>Bishop Paul Mususu<\/strong>, Chairman of the Evangelical Fellowship of Zambia, stressed that\u00a0<strong>disciple-making must be central to every denomination\u2019s vision<\/strong>. Using real-life examples, he demonstrated that stylistic changes in the church cannot replace deep spiritual transformation. He called on leaders to return to\u00a0<strong>Jesus&#8217; model of disciple-making<\/strong>, which builds churches rooted in love, unity, and mission (Eph. 4:16).<\/p><p>True discipleship involves\u00a0<strong>teaching, mentoring, real-life practice, and multiplication<\/strong>, explained\u00a0<strong>Dr. Tom Lunsford<\/strong>, ASDM Director of Training.
