This document discusses Paul Goebbels' admiration for Adolf Hitler. It contains excerpts from Goebbels praising Hitler for greeting him like an old friend and speaking in a way that breaks down all resistance. Goebbels says they will go down in history as the greatest statesmen or criminals. The document portrays Goebbels as a devoted disciple of Hitler.
Making disciples who make disciples is at the heart of the call to follow Christ. Here are some notes on the gap between our intentions and practice (adapted from Greg Ogden's book, Transforming Discipleship).
It is common to refer to the process of maturing as a disciple as spiritual formation. Here, based upon work by Greg Ogden, I give a four stage process for growing into maturity, and fruitfulness, as a follower of King Jesus.

Making converts, gaining decisions, does not equal making disciples. It is essential we look at the right ideas, in the right way to make real disciples of King Jesus.

1. What Does It Mean to be a Disciple of Jesus? KeynoteWilliam Anderson
This is the first of four sessions of our "Being and Making Disciples" workshop held in Sacele, Romania on September 1, 2012. In this session we answer the question "What Does It Means to be a Disciple of Jesus?". We did this by first looking at what the word "disciple" means and then looking at what Jesus, Peter and Paul had to say about being a disciple and then we finished by looking at Jesus' life to learn from His example. English with Romanian translation.
These are notes from a simple introductory course on Church Planting. The majority of the course notes presented here are based upon J. D. Payne’s Planting Apostolic Churches.
Jesus expected a process of change, growth and development in the life of his followers. Many writers suggest a three or four stage process. A four stage process is outlined here, along with personal challenge / application.

A digitális kompetencia kognitív dimenziója és összefüggései onk2015Szilvia Tóth-Mózer
A digitális bennszülöttek mítoszának megteremtésével és a laikus közbeszédben való elterjedésével párhuzamosan egyre több felől fogalmazódnak meg a 21. századi tanulóval kapcsolatos konkrét elvárások. Ezek között hangsúlyos a digitális kompetencia megléte is, amelyet a szerzők számos módon közelítenek meg és különböző részterületre bontanak (Calvani, Cartelli, Fini és Ranieri, 2008, Erstad, 2010, Pegrum, 2011, Area és Pessoa, 2012, Ng, 2012, Hinrichsen és Coombs, 2013). A digitális kompetencia mérésének alapját azok a jól körülírt kompetenciák és készségek adják, amelyekről nemcsak szakirodalomi összefoglalókban olvashatunk, hanem a munkaerő-piaci elvárásokat tükröző dokumentumokban is.
Az előadásban ismertetett kutatás célja a középiskolás tanulók internethasználattal kapcsolatos ismereteinek, forráskeresési és -értékelési stratégiáinak, valamint a digitális kompetencia kognitív dimenzió összefüggésrendszerének megismerése. A kutatásban 2014 őszi félévében 14 középiskola 38 osztálya vett részt összesen 1037 tanulóval.
A digitális kompetenciát mérő teszthez Calvani és munkatársai (2008) Instant DCA (Digital Competence Assessment) tesztjéből adaptáltuk a kognitív dimenzióban mérő feladatokat, Eszter Hargittai (2009) fogalomgyűjteményéből vettünk át néhány fogalmat, a PISA 2012-es matematikai tesztfüzetéből választottunk egyet (OECD, 2012), illetve néhány saját kérdést is alkalmaztunk. A mérőeszköz 16 féle feladatba sűrített itemeit reliabilitás-vizsgálatnak vetettük alá, a Cronbach-alpha értéke megfelelőnek bizonyult (0,712).
A kutatás rávilágított, hogy a tanulók forráskeresési és –értékelési stratégiáinak fejlesztése terén még sok teendő van. A varianciaanalízisek eredményeképpen megállapíthatjuk, hogy a szülők iskolai végzettsége a digitáliskompetencia-pontszámból 4%-os hányadot magyaráz meg, ahogyan a tanuló előző évi bizonyítványátlaga is. Az osztály mint független változó esetében volt a legmagasabb a megmagyarázott variancia (36%), azaz hogy a tanulók melyik osztálynak, tanulóközösségnek a tagjai. A digitáliskompetencia-pontszám összefüggést mutatott az iskolai Országos Kompetenciamérésnek a matematikai (r=0,53, p=0,01) és a szövegértés-eredményeivel is (r=0,535, p=0,01). A digitális kompetencia nem függött össze az életkorral, a heti informatikaórák számával, a naponta aktívan internetezéssel, tanulással vagy olvasással töltött órák számával sem (p>0,05).
A digitális tanulói jellemzők és a hatékony tanulási szokások (Prensky, 2001, Jukes és Dosaj, 2006 nyomán Thompson, 2012) felmérése alapján elkülönített klaszterek (hatékony alkalmazók, közömbösek, eredményorientáltak) a digitáliskompetencia-teszten nyújtott teljesítményükben csak néhány feladat esetében különböznek szignifikánsan. A hagyományosabb tanulási preferenciájú tanulók sem feltétlenül maradnak el a digitális világ kihívást jelentő feladataiban. A digitális kompetencia sem nem veleszületett, sem nem spontán fejlődő, de hozzáértő pedagógusok munkája nyomán fejleszthető.
Disciple-Making, according to Greg Ogden requires at least tow major factors: Internalisation and Multiplication. This presentation adds to his ideas with some scripture and illustrative ideas challenging followers of Christ to become, and make, disciples in his image.

In Jude 17-23 Jude shifts from piling up examples of false teachers from the Old Testament to a series of practical exhortations that flow from apostolic instruction. He preserves for us what may well have been part of the apostolic catechism for the first generation of Christ-followers. In these instructions Jude exhorts the believer to deal with 3 different groups of people: scoffers who are "devoid of the Spirit", believers who have come under the influence of scoffers and believers who are so entrenched in false teaching that they need rescue and pose some real spiritual risk for the rescuer. In all of this Jude emphasizes Jesus' call to rescue straying sheep, leaving the 99 safely behind and pursuing the 1.
2 Peter 3: Because some scriptures are hard to understand and some will force them to say things God never intended, Peter warns us to take care.
