week 1: what is a disciple?

This week’s devotional defines the walk. It strips discipleship down to what Jesus actually asks for: daily obedience, intentional surrender, and a pace that can be sustained. Before lasting growth comes commitment. Before meaningful progress comes the right posture. Build this foundation well, because every step that follows depends on it and shapes a man’s lifelong journey forward.
