Book excerpt: Discipleship is essential for spiritual growth, maturity, transformation, and Christlikeness. The process is strategic and consistent. The disciple determines their commitment to the process with the end goal of conformity to Christ. Christ modeled the ideal of discipleship in his obedience to the Father while he demonstrated and practiced servanthood, sacrifice, and love as primary characteristics. Each believer replicates Christ’s example and passes on the paradigm to make other disciples. The Gospel of Christ redeems and saves. By adhering to Christ’s teachings, through the power of the Holy Spirit, and involvement in the Great Commission, believers become disciples that make other disciples. Discipleship transforms people, enabling them to be “salt and light” in this world. It is a costly process with eternal rewards, but it is necessary for every Christian.
