Discipleship Series | Week 3 In today’s sermon, Darrell highlights how Jesus’ baptism, calling and wilderness preparation, initiate his action of calling disciples to make disciples - not just converts or churchgoers - but people becoming disciples - intimately attached to the lordship of Jesus Christ - because He has ‘commanded’ us to do this. Sum…
