Discipleship This is Discipleship 1:58 What Is A Disciple? 2:35

Discipleship is the process by which disciples grow in the Lord Jesus Christ and are equipped by the Holy Spirit, who resides in our hearts, to overcome the pressures and trials of this present life and become more and more Christ-like.

This process requires believers to respond to the Holy Spirit’s prompting to examine their thoughts, words and actions and compare them with the Word of God. We should always be ready to give testimony of the reason for the hope that is within us and to disciple others to walk in His way.

According to Scripture, being a Christian disciple involves personal growth characterized by the following…

5 Actions of Discipleship

Matthew 4:18-22 True disciples are ready to answer the call of Jesus

Luke 10:38-42 True disciples gladly gather around Jesus and listen to his words

John 20:19-22 True disciples open their hearts to receive the gift of the Holy Spirit

Luke 10:1, 3, 8-9 True disciples are willing to go forth and spread the message of Jesus

Luke 9:23-24 True disciples take up their cross each day and follow Jesus

How can I show Discipleship? O Go to page 122 in BE WITH ME and read the “Precepts of the Church” O Create a chart or creative diagram that outlines the 6 Precepts of the Catholic Church and what they call us to do as Disciples of God
