I am convinced that discipleship has been a crucial element in my growth and transformation. It is more than just a program or a process; discipleship helped deepen my understanding of God's Word and develop a consistent prayer life. I am so grateful for those in my life growing up who took the time to encourage me in my faith and walk with God.
Discipleship is teaching others how to follow Jesus. We don't have to be great theologians to teach others how to follow. It's in the simple everyday things that we do all day that we can teach those around us how to follow Jesus.
When my grandkids are in the car we always sang songs from Sunday school that I have taught over the years. Their favorite was "Jesus Loves Me" and we always discussed afterward God's love and said the verse together John 3:16. I used my car rides with my kids and grandkids as an opportunity to worship as we sang and learned more about God together!May we leave behind a generation of men, women, children, and grandchildren who love Christ with all their hearts!
This is a picture of me with my nephews at Dubois Lagoon in the 1990's ~ we would go there some days from 8:30 am to 8:30 pm having breakfast, lunch and dinner by the water.
