Our series on the essentials of women\u2019s ministry continues today with a focus on discipleship.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

If you\u2019ve been following along, you may have read the post on theology<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Discipleship is closely connected to theology; it is taking the knowledge one has learned about God (theology) and putting it into action.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Definitions<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Let\u2019s start with some definitions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    \n
  • Disciples are followers of Christ who intentionally and regularly study God\u2019s Word and seek to obey the Word as they live out their faith.<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n
      \n
    • Discipleship is the process of studying and living out God\u2019s Word with one or more believers, as modeled by Christ.<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n
