Discipleship - You Are Made for This
Life on Purpose, Part 4

In the calling of His disciples Jesus said simply, “Come, follow Me."  As each disciple answered this call, he left his old way of life behind and followed Jesus learning His way of life.  With every passing day, they lived together, traveled together, ate together, studied God’s Word together, and prayed together.  In this daily following of Jesus, the disciples drew closer to Him, and in the process discovered more of who they themselves were created to be.  This was a life altering experience for these men. Following Jesus set their lives on an entirely new course and gave them the true purpose God had intended for them. Since that time, many millions of people have answered Christ’s call to follow Him.  Many people have come to know who they are as God’s children through the process we now call Discipleship.  God has a purpose for your life and the process of Discipleship is key to discovering and living out this new identity. In the fourth part of our sermon series “Life on Purpose” we look at God’s purpose for Discipleship in our lives and in the life of our church.
