Discipleship is really about two simple things: showing up and paying attention. When we participate with purpose and presence, we learn to trust, belong, and join God's work in the world. When we reflect on our experiences, we create space to see how love received becomes love expressed. Jesus modeled this perfectly—he took his disciples into real situations and then helped them process what they'd seen. In this rhythm of engaging and reflecting, we gradually become the kind of people for whom life with God feels less like work and more like a natural flow, where transformation happens not through striving but through grace.
