Learning to Follow

Man, Scot at Jesus Creed is on fire this week. He's posted a great question, something that I've been working and reworking for about five years now: What does discipleship look like in a missional setting? I think that the classroom-based approach is losing some of its effectiveness, but how do you show people, especially those new to the faith, what it means to live it out?

I posted a comment over there, but I'd like to continue the conversation here. He also asks, "what are the top 5 'missional outcomes' in this type of class?", and then suggests that loving people should be #1. I'd love to hear your thoughts on this as well.

So, I guess here's the breakdown:

What are the top five outcomes that a follower of Christ should display in their lives? (And, please, no Purpose-Driven stuff.)

What is the best ways to develop those in a person new to the faith? What about those who have been followers for a while?

I know I have friends out there with opinions that just lurk on here, so now's your time to come out of the shadows!
