Good morning to you. It has finally turned summer time and the heat is on. Let’s hope this summer passes as fast as the rest of the year has! For our Study today I would like for you to visualize the word, disciple. What comes to your mind? Do you see the twelve men in sandals traveling through Galilee with JESUS? Or do you see a Church like yours filled with people with open Bibles in their hands? Either we think of a disciple in terms of the first-century apostles, or we think of a disciple as a souped-up version of an ordinary Christian, someone more enthused for CHRIST than others. But the word disciple was the primary New testament word to describe ordinary believers like you and me. That term occurs thirty times in the books of Acts, and it isn’t limited to the twelve disciples in the Bible.
