THE DISCIPLE: What It Means to Follow Jesus by Andy Ripley

A biblical view of what it means to be a true follower of Jesus Christ. The Lord Himself made many powerful and poignant statements about those who would dare to call themselves His disciples. There are great commitments and bold sacrifices to make. His disciples must be made of stern and durable stuff. They must set their sights and their hopes on eternity rather than on the things that can be found while living this short life. There is no other call known to man that demands more courage, more stamina, or more fortitude than the call to be a disciple of the Lord.
