The Importance of Discipleship

Brian Bellings: Do we understand what Jesus is kind of discipleship was? And are we pursuing that on some level? Church assimilation is great. We call discipleship spiritual formation, he says. But I think it's the thing that Jesus asked us to do - make converts and help people assimilate into a church or faith community. That's not discipleship in a rabbinic sense. It's something that needs to be pursued.
