All the answers are at the bottom of the page. The idea is to help people learn. Most people we work with want to learn and are eager to study something they can succeed in.<BR/><BR/>Gordon--enjoyed reading through several of your blog entries. Keep up the good work!<BR/><BR/>George--Your question about discipleship taking the place of TEE is a good one. Sounds like a good subject for you to blog about! :) I don't know the answer myself. We see the need for both in our own work. I guess if discipleship were done correctly like in NT times with the early church, there would not be a need for a TE program. But we aren't there yet, and for the time being, there is a great need for TEE.J.

What are your thoughts about discipleship taking the place of TEE? If discipleship is done correctly, do we need TEE? Just curious what your thoughts on this are.Donhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05982228563827277287noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-23191203.post-1155862601674312572006-08-17T19:56:00.000-05:002006-08-17T19:56:00.000-05:00I found your blog through the SBC aggregator.

I figured at least one M or former-M out there would!<BR/><BR/>Interesting observation about the question needing to be "are we making disciples?" <BR/><BR/>During our last team meeting we discussed at length the problem we are currently having where "discipleship" and "TE" are being used as synonymous terms.<BR/><BR/>Making disciples is what we are commanded to do. In our own context we are finding that a number of our people are substituting their TEE studies for genuine discipleship. As long as the 'grass-roots' TEE is actually making disciples, it is fine; but when TE begins to take the place of a genuine obedient walk with the Lord, and something that people do to learn more information about the Bible; then we need to take a second look at how we are making disciples.J.

Anybody that is serious about TEE must read Patterson's "Tu y Tu Casa" and "Obedience-Oriented Education".<BR/>Please see www.Paul-Timothy.net for more information.<BR/><BR/>Many of us went to traditional seminaries for training. I am thankful for the education that I received but...if I had to do it all over again I might like a shot at getting a TEE education.<BR/><BR/>The salient question for all of us should be: "Are we making disciples?" If not, then we are being disobedient to the Master's Master Plan!<BR/><BR/>Can't believe you go me to take the bait again.<BR/><BR/>EstebanAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
