Sending - Locally & Globally

If I am a disciple-maker; and we all are called to be disciple-makers based on the the Five Great Commissions found in Holy Writ.  As a disciple-maker I can help another to be a disciple-maker both locally and globally through the principles found in the following:

Fulfilling the Great Commission by making disciples begins with faithfulness within our immediate sphere of influence, "His lord said unto him, Well done, good and faithful servant; thou hast been faithful over a few things, I will make thee ruler over many things: enter thou into the joy of thy lord." (Matthew 25:23)  Showing faithfulness in our immediate or "local" sphere is similar to the training and experience received in minor league baseball. When a player proves himself in the "local" arena, he is then advanced to the major leagues.  As the player grows in their faith just like a ballplayer, they take on new roles within the church.  Faithfulness in the Local arena of the church
