Intentional Discipleship
"Go therefore and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, teaching them to observe all that I have commanded you..." Matthew 28:19
Discipleship is all about following Jesus and growing in closeness to Him. Our lives are meant to be an apprenticeship under Jesus where we learn to follow Him, imitate Him and fall deeply in love with Him. This, like any other discipline, requires training and practice.
