What is it to be a Christian? Jesus was a teacher (rabi) who helped people learn about God and how to live in relationship with Him. Christian discipleship is us learning about life with God from the teachings and life of Jesus. We are called to become ‘Christ-like’, which is only possible if we know Jesus, his life and his teachings. If we believe that Jesus is the way, the truth and the life, then the best choice we can is to try to live out our lives in this way. In a broken world this is always going to be hard because the life that Jesus demonstrates is one of self-giving, costly love.
This discipleship is individual and collective, theory and practice. We spend time in prayer, in praise and worship, in reading the word, and in loving and serving in the world. We do this in communion with other believers and in communion with God. The point of discipleship is to develop patterns of behavior that draw you into new ways of life. The ultimate purpose of discipleship is to grow deeper and deeper in our relationship with God. Everything we do remains as ritual and religion unless it is building this relationship. We are never finished because you can never finish knowing someone, as the relationship grows so does your knowledge of yourself and of God. Discipleship is the life long journey of living with God in the world, knowing yourself and knowing God more each day.
