Discipleship is not something we accomplish and then move on to the next thing; rather, biblical discipleship is a lifelong pursuit of Christ, growing in our understanding and relationship with Him, and being conformed to His image.

The concept of discipleship is akin to an apprentice that takes on not just the knowledge but the lifestyle of the one to whom they are following – in our case, God Himself. We are to become Christlike … not through self-effort or talent, but through the indwelling of the very life of Christ (i.e., the Holy Spirit).

One great way to continue your lifelong pursuit of Christ is have an intentional plan to grow in Christ. Here are two great options I’d highly recommend:
