What is discipleship? Based on his study of Scripture, Ron Bennett paints a brief portrait of a follower of Jesus.

“Have you ever prayed to ask God to forgive your sins and ask Jesus into your heart?” I asked. She said no, but that she would like to. 

In three different situations and with three different phrases from one verse, God met each of us uniquely. 

When Jesus called the first disciples, He gave them a compass: “And he said to them, ‘Follow me, and I will make you fishers of men’ ” (Matthew 4:19, ESV). 

You never know when a seed you have planted will take root and grow. It sometimes takes patience to see signs of spiritual life.
