What does it really mean to be a disciple of Jesus rather than simply attending church or making a one-time decision? In this teaching, Steve Wilkins explains that discipleship is the normal Christian life, not an advanced level. Drawing from Luke 14 and Luke 9, he describes discipleship as daily surrender—denying self, taking up the cross, and following Jesus in every area of life. He challenges a Western model that often emphasizes decisions over transformation, calling instead for lives shaped by ongoing obedience and closeness to Christ. He also outlines discipleship as a journey of maturity, from new believers to spiritual parents who reproduce faith in others. Finally, he highlights the importance of community, where believers are shaped through relationships with those ahead, beside, behind, and outside the faith.
