In part one of our three-part series on being effective disciples, we start with a foundation of knowing that, while we are given a free gift through God’s love/mercy, being effective still requires action/discipline on our part. Firstly, we learn that prayer requires devotion and humility. Secondly, we understand that we need to be grounded in scripture and imbibe it as equal to our daily bread. Therefore, if we want to be effective disciples, we must start with devotion to prayer and scripture.
