A Blueprint for Discipleship

I met her in the eighth grade.  I’d never really known anyone like her.  She was poised.  She spoke with grace.  Her countenance reflected a peace I’d never really seen in anyone.  This woman loved Jesus.

As a new believer, I looked on at her life and wondered how I could be more like her. I really didn’t have time to chat with her about it much though.   I was just one of 20 or so students in her physical science class at the Christian school I attended.  I was a name on her roster. We really didn’t have a personal relationship, just a formal one.

One glorious day, she asked me to stay after class.  She said she’d like to chat with me one on one later that week, and let me know what time she was available.

I really had no idea why she wanted to see me, but she was an amazing woman and my teacher. So, I showed up at the time we agreed upon. I am sure that my knees were knocking a little as I crossed the threshold into that classroom…

I’m delighted to be sharing “Blueprint for Discipleship” over at Missional Women today.  To read the rest of this post, head on over here.
