My Heart Is On Fire By Doug Apple - A Short Christian Devotional To Open The Scriptures And Make Your Heart Burn Within You!

I’m Doug Apple...and my heart is on fire. (Luke 24:32) Maybe don’t be in such a hurry to flee the church building after service. Maybe your interactions with people in the hallway are as important as the service itself. I call it Hallway Discipleship. You can also call it “loving people.” It’s interacting with people in the hallway, your brothers and sisters in Christ, your family members in the family of God. It’s informal. It’s casual. It’s not structured. But it’s just as valuable as formal discipleship. It’s Hallway Discipleship. It’s taking time to look people in the eye, say hello, ask how they’re doing, and being in no hurry. It’s listening to them, hearing about their day, their life, their family, their work. It’s not looking past them to rush off to the next thing. When we do this, when we actually listen and care, here’s what it does. It earns us the opportunity to plant a seed. This is where Hallway Discipleship happens. Discipleship is helping someone follow Jesus more closely. In
