Quote
Life played God’s way is a relational sport. Played well, it volleys back and for the between the Trinity and us, between us and others. Discipleship has been given to the grace training we undergo; this implies that we are intentional about processes of learning, self-discipline, and life application as is led by God.

Quote
Isn’t our goal to become increasingly like Jesus? We get to know the Master because we live with him. As apprentices you and I can’t have a relationship with Him just because we have read a book about his way of life. While I may admire the man, that is like saying I am like Winston Churchill just because I read one of his memoirs.

Whatever language you choose, apprenticeship/discipleship is picture of the same process. It’s less “knowing about,” and more “knowing for yourself.” The experience engages our whole hearts the process of relating and refining in love.
