Discipleship has been a passion in my life from the day I got saved. I have always been interested in learning to live like Jesus and His first disciples. The book of Acts never gets old to me. It seems like every time I read it through I’m seeing so much I can do differently. Plus, I day dream about seeing the same things happen in my generation.

Now after almost 18 years of serving the Lord I am honored to share what I think are the “Top Twelve Duties of Discipleship” that I have learned along the way. I pray you are encouraged by them to be a true “DOC,” Disciple of Christ!
