Disciple Dojo
JM Smith
What’s up with the name “Disciple Dojo”??
Great question! One of my lifelong passions has been studying the martial arts. And the place where you study and train in martial arts is a Dojo.
Christian Discipleship is similar to martial arts training (if you don’t believe me, just ask Paul–he says so himself in his letter to Christians in ancient Corinth [1Cor. 9:26-27]!). We have a Sensei (teacher): Jesus. We have a katana (sword): Scripture.
Thus Disciple Dojo is intended as a virtual Dojo–where students of the Master can be sharpened, challenged, equipped and encouraged as they continue to become more and more like the One they serve…minus the scrapes and bruises!

The Dragonslayer and Revelation
Every ancient (and modern!) culture has a form of it. The "Combat Myth" is a literary archetype that spans humanity. The Bible is no exception. But where myth leaves off, Revelation pics up...in the vivid and profound way that only the Apocalypse can!

Revelation: The Bible's 'Red Pill'
