Discipleship / counseling as Jesus practiced and taught is much broader and deeper than the discipleship that is often practiced today. It includes evangelizing, baptizing, teaching, admonishing, instructing, comforting, encouraging, restoring, strengthening, reproving, rebuking, and exhorting others to follow a biblical pattern of life.
In Matthew 28:19-20, which is often called the “Great Commission,” Jesus made it clear that making disciples goes beyond evangelism and basic follow up. Biblical discipleship also includes teaching disciples to observe all that He taught. It is in-depth discipleship because it deals with every aspect of a person’s life. The discipleship process must be so thorough that the new disciple can disciple others in biblical patterns for living victoriously in all circumstances, i.e., so that he or she can carry on the mission of making disciples.
