Discipleship in Contemporary Mission

This article explores the concept and practice of discipleship in contemporary missions. Discipleship in mission reflection has emerged in recent years within the scope of the World Council of Churches and the Asian Christian Conference. The practice of intentional discipleship is carried out not only by churches or parachurches but also by communities of Jesus followers who adhere to non-Christian religions. They remained in their religion but professed to believe in and accept Jesus Christ as their Lord and Saviour. They study individually or together in a community to grow in the proper knowledge of Christ and know what God wants them to do in their daily lives. This article presents several case examples, mainly from Indonesia, resulting from the author's research.
