    Christ calls the believer to take up his cross daily...

    The Necessity of Self Discipline Dr. Russell K. Tardo Discipleship means discipline. The words are synonymous. That the words sound alike is no coincidence because a disciple is a disciplined one, a pupil. Even the very angels have been given responsibilities. They are given charge over the ...read more

    The Three Cs Of Discipleship

    Contributed by Ray Ellis on Jun 8, 2009

     | 10,559 views

    Becoming a Christ follower is conditional. We have the choice to say, “Yes” or “No” to becoming a disciple of Jesus. Jesus said, “If anyone will come after me…” Jesus gives the invitation and then leaves the choice up to us.

    The Three “Cs” of Discipleship Luke 9:23-26 During my twelve years of ministry here the mission of the Willow Vale Church has been: “Bringing people to Jesus, loving, equipping and sending them out to make more and better disciples.” Jesus gave us the mission and purpose of the church ...read more

    For Transfiguration Sunday: we, like the disciples, have not imagined Christ as who He is, we as who we can become, or the cost of glory ... losing our lives to save them.

    Every one who teaches knows what a mighty struggle it is to teach anybody anything and make it stick. Students come to school drowsy and distracted. Some are there because they have to be; some because Daddy’s money put them there; and some just because they cannot think of anything else to do. ...read more

    Jesus taught that if we give up our pride, problems and personal agenda we will gain His power, perspective and promises.

For whoever saves (holds on to his rights) will lose them, but whoever loses (gives up his personal rights)his life for my sake will save it." ...read more

     | 12,009 views

    "But what about you...who do you say I am?" Peter gave the correct answer to that question from Jesus to his disiciples. Our life and our eternal destiny are dependent on our answer to that same question.

    No Resolutions Just Commitments

    Contributed by Mark Haines on Jan 7, 2009
    based on 4 ratings
     | 4,182 views

    Jesus calls us to make cross-carrying commitments. These are not resolutions that can be broken and forgotten in a matter of days. When a person picks up a cross, it’s a one-way trip. No one expects to come back.

    I HATE NEW YEAR’S RESOLUTIONS For nearly a decade, I said, “Next January, I will start eating right and exercising.” You can tell what happened with my resolutions. NOTHING. I did not start eating healthy foods. I did not start exercising, but that all changed last January 14th. I had a ...read more

    There is a cost to being a disciple of Christ, a cost that most people do not understand.

    What does it cost to be a disciple of Jesus? According to Merriam Webster a disciple is someone who accepts and assists in sharing the doctrines of another person. A disciple of Jesus therefore is a person who accepts and assists in the spreading of the good news of Jesus Christ. We call such ...read more
