What does it mean to be a disciple of Jesus Christ? At the most basic level, a disciple is a student, one who follows the teachings of a master and spreads those same teachings. Yet being a disciple of Christ is more than simply learning, adhering to, and spreading Christian doctrines. Being His disciple means being His follower, going wherever He leads and doing whatever He commands-no matter what the cost. A.W. Tozer knew this well.
