Discipleship: Transformation Through Jesus’ First Followers
Explore how Jesus transformed ordinary lives through Peter, Andrew, James, and John, inspiring us to follow Him in true discipleship.
📖 Introduction
Discipleship is a journey of transformation—a call to follow Jesus and be shaped by His life, teachings, and mission. The first disciples of Jesus, including Peter, Andrew, James, and John, were ordinary men with ordinary lives. Yet, when Jesus called them, everything changed. These fishermen left their nets behind and embraced a new purpose that turned their hearts and futures upside down.
In this 7-day study, we will walk alongside these first followers of Christ, discovering how their lives were deeply transformed by Jesus' invitation to "Follow me." You'll notice how their initial responses, struggles, growth, and boldness can encourage us today. We learn not just about historical figures but about how Jesus still shapes and calls everyday people into discipleship.
As we unpack key moments and Scriptures, ask yourself: How is Jesus inviting me to respond to His call? What does it mean to leave behind old ways and follow Him faithfully? What kind of transformation can I trust Him to bring about in my life?
This study is designed to inspire and challenge, inviting you into the rich, real-life story of following Jesus authentically—just as Peter, Andrew, James, and John did more than two thousand years ago. Whether you are new to faith or have walked with Christ for years, may this time deepen your understanding of discipleship and encourage you to live it out daily.
