Discipleship

Discipleship isn’t just an exchange of information
______________________________

You can be influenced by a book, but not be discipled

You can download great messages, but not be discipled

You can be stirred by an exciting speaker, but not discipled

You can subscribed to some amazing blogs, but not be discipled

You can go to a Spirit Filled College, but not be discipled

You can go to Church every week, but not be discipled

Discipleship requires:
A press of the flesh
You to be really known
You to be really understood
You to be really loved

It further requires:
Someone who knows when its time to laugh or cry with you
Someone who knows whether to use the stick or the carrot in your life
Someone who knows your fears and understands your strengths, but isn’t overwhelmed by either
Someone who cares more about your promotion than theirs
Someone who cares more about your destiny then theirs
Most generally someone who’s lived more life, had more failures, conquered more hills, and stared down more fears than you

Discipleship must be personal, not done in a vacuum

We all need something more than information - we all need discipleship…
