IntroductionWhen Jesus called his disciples, his invitation was simple. He invited them to follow him. The same is true today. In Matthew 28, Jesus gives his final charge to his disciples, and the charge is simple. He called his disciples to go and make disciples. Many efforts have been made by Christians to fulfill this mission, commonly called the Great Commission. Jesus chose to accomplish the implementation of the New Covenant through 12 men whom He called, appointed, and commissioned, and He had only a few years to prepare them for this task (Willson , 1990). His methods were unconventional and were revolutionary for the time. His disciples were to be intensively trained by Jesus and live with him for three years before his ascension. He taught servant leadership and its meaning for both the leader and the follower, Matt. 8:25-28 p.m.). From the beginning, Jesus laid out a careful plan, and an examination of his actions in the Gospels has shown that Jesus left behind the pattern to be replicated. His methods, which included the incorporation of three different levels of discipleship, included his interaction with Peter, his three closest (Peter, James and John) and finally the group of 12. This article identified and analyzed the three levels of discipleship of Jesus. modeled, these disciple-making methods were then measured against modern theories of leadership, and Jesus' level of involvement and interaction with his disciples was critiqued in light of these modern theories in an attempt to determine the effectiveness of this approach. The world today reveals proof that Jesus' efforts were effective.

Jesus took a group of 12 ordinary men and changed the world. 2000 years of success are hard to refute. Works Cited Chung, Y. (2011). Why servant leadership?
