Sermon Snippets: Discipleship 101, Mark 3:7-19

Discipleship is a term used almost exclusively by Christians.
Growing up in church, we are told we need to be disciples of Christ and we need to "make disciples". It's part of 'The Great Commission' Christ gave us in Matthew 28. Programs and ministries are given the label "Discipleship".

It's pretty easy to spot one (Galatians 5), but how do you make one?
For a long time, I didn't have a good answer. It felt as confusing as diagramming Greek or doing AP Calculus. I was aware of the key elements that help me in my sanctification process, but I had difficulty translating it into a one-on-one relationship or applying it to leading a small group.

Mark 3:7-19 provides the basics to discipleship, including the simple answer to that crucial 'how' question.
