WHAT IS DISCIPLESHIP?

It seems like everyone has a different definition

What does it involve?

What does a disciple look like?


WHAT WOULD YOU WRITE TO THOSE YOU LOVE, IF IT WAS YOUR LAST LETTER?

Read: 2 Timothy 2:1-7 (NLT)
Timothy, my dear son, be strong through the grace that God gives you in Christ Jesus. 2 You have heard me teach things that have been confirmed by many reliable witnesses. Now teach these truths to other trustworthy people who will be able to pass them on to others.
3 Endure suffering along with me, as a good soldier of Christ Jesus. 4 Soldiers don’t get tied up in the affairs of civilian life, for then they cannot please the officer who enlisted them. 5 And athletes cannot win the prize unless they follow the rules.6 And hardworking farmers should be the first to enjoy the fruit of their labor.7 Think about what I am saying. The Lord will help you understand all these things.


Vs. 1 “Timothy, my dear son”

Hebrews 12:1-2a (NLT)
Therefore, since we are surrounded by such a huge crowd of witnesses to the life of faith, let us strip off every weight that slows us down, especially the sin that so easily trips us up. And let us run with endurance the race God has set before us. 2 We do this by keeping our eyes on Jesus, the champion who initiates and perfects our faith

Vs. 5 “Follow the Rules”

1 Cor 11:1 (NASB)
“Be imitators of me, just as I also am of Christ.”

Vs. 6 “Hard Working”

Vs. 7 “Think about what I am saying”
