Since HOPE Ministries of the Upstate is a discipleship program/ ministry, I wanted to make the subject of tonight's post discipleship itself. I'd like to start by stating that discipleship in this ministry does not stop because of has graduated the physical program! Discipleship continues for the rest of the lives of all those who follow Christ!
Discipleship is a following of Christ, through the inevitable fellowship of others that follow Christ as well. Through this sharing of each other's experiences and lives in essence, we are to grow in Christ together, those stronger in Him leading those that are not so strong!
As one can derive, and as the founder and CEO of this ministry can surely attest to, this surely requires a mass amount of patience in many ways. The patience to listen, understand, share, evaluate, learn, and respond to the lives of others who yearn to be disciples! However, this patience brings wisdom upon yourself leading to growth. I encourage you all in your discipleship to realize that patience is a great gift that brings wisdom and growth to all of those that endure it!
