Doug Patch shares his personal experience in adult discipleship relationships to show how this sort of intimate and intentional relating within the body of Christ changes lives. The pros and cons of three different adult discipleship models are discussed. Though discipleship models may vary, the definition of discipleship should not. Discipleship is a Christ-centered friendship with the main goal of helping one another to reach spiritual maturity through character transformation and a ministry lifestyle. No matter the model, discipleship should include Bible study, ministry, counsel, and prayer. If done right, discipleship is certainly not easy, but it is eternally worthwhile.
