Definition Of A Disciple
- A disciple is fundamentally a learner, apprentice, or someone being mentored by a teacher.
- The Bible uses the term disciple variously: general trainees, the Twelve, and early Christians called disciples.
Make Time With Jesus Nonnegotiable
- Spend substantial, regular time with Jesus; discipleship requires ongoing presence, not a few minutes a day.
- Fit yourself to your discipler's schedule and maintain constant conversation to grow spiritually.
Growth Starts With Choice
- Spiritual growth is a choice and will not happen automatically without your decision.
- You're as close to God as you choose to be, so personal choice determines growth.
