The apostle Paul, who became the apostle to the Gentiles, always made the synagogue the initial stepping stone to preach the gospel, including in Ephesus. Interestingly, Paul continued his ministry in Ephesus and considered it an incredible opportunity despite his many challenges. Using a descriptive qualitative research method with a literature study approach, it can be concluded that the understanding and definition of disciples must be a foothold to continue serving God in the discipleship mission. Furthermore, using the place as a means of evangelization in the Synagogue, the Apostle Paul's way of approaching the community aims to focus on smaller groups so that the church can train and produce leaders to face the challenges of discipleship in urban areas.
Abstrak
Rasul Paulus yang menjadi rasul untuk orang-orang non-Yahudi selalu menjadikan synagoge sebagai batu pijakan awal untuk memberitakan Injil, termasuk di Efesus. Namun yang menarik adalah Paulus tetap melakukan pelayanan di Efesus dan menganggapnya sebagai kesempatan besar sekalipun banyak tantangan yang ia hadapi di sana. Mengunakan metode penelitian kualitatif deskritif dengan pendekatan Studi pustaka maka dapat disimpulkan bahwa pengertian dan definisi tentang murid harus menjadi pijakan untuk terus melayani Tuhan dalam Misi pemuridan. Selanjutnya menggunakan tempat untuk menjadi sarana penginjilan di Synagoge, cara Rasul Paulus sebagai metode pendekatan kepada komunitas yang bertujuan untuk fokus kepada kelompok lebih kecil, sehingga gereja dapat melatih dan menghasilkan pemimpin demi menghadapi tanntangan pemuridan di perkotaan.
