This is the fourth of a four-part series that Rev. Dr. Pete Bellini and I agreed to do. It is aimed at equipping individuals and churches to do discipleship better in the local church. Christianity requires intentional discipleship, but that is easier said than done. Thus far, we have worked to establish listeners and participants to better understand our undergirding beliefs about the nature and call of holiness, about the context of the local church, and about the yearning all believers should have for Christlikeness.

Today's segment will be concerned with the nuts and bolts of daily discipleship for all believers. We are all aware on some level that the faith of Jesus Christ requires a changed way of life. Yet that language is quite broad and vague. Given that we cannot subjectively determine these things, we need to approach this subject objectively. Take the time to join us, and engage us with questions as we go along. We want to make sure this speaks to people practically and directly. Help us do that!
