Discipleship is the process of following Christ and helping others follow Him.
A disciple is a learner, follower, and servant who submits to the authority of Jesus and seeks to obey His teaching.
Christian discipleship involves more than acquiring information. It includes spiritual growth, obedience, transformation of character, and participation in the life and mission of the church. Jesus commanded His followers not merely to make converts but to make disciples, teaching them to observe all that He commanded.
Discipleship is therefore both personal and relational. Mature believers help younger believers grow, while the whole church participates in the work of spiritual formation.
See in Scripture: Matthew 4:19; Matthew 28:18–20; Luke 9:23; John 8:31–32; 2 Timothy 2:2
