Discipleship

Was having my lunch when I overheard the conversation between two guys talking about discipleship. The shepherd was apparently 'discipling' the sheep by going through a Christian book.

In our modern Christianity, discipleship often takes place in one-on-one meeting. Discipleship in our context is about intelligence and talks. Make no mistake. I was one of them in the past.

In the olden times, discipleship was about showing and demonstrating the works of God. Jesus didn't focus on talking and teaching. His teachings over the dining table were meant to reinforce what He has shown and demonstrated in real life.

Perhaps we need to remove table-cum-meeting discipleship, thinking that it is discipleship when it is not. It's merely a discussion on discipleship that does not reach the heart.

Discipleship must be about showing and demonstrating how to live His life on earth.
