What is Discipleship?

            Discipleship- Living to be like Jesus

Matt 28:18-20
And Jesus came and said to them, “All authority in heaven and on earth has been given to me. 19 Go therefore and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, 20 teaching them to observe all that I have commanded you. And behold, I am with you always, to the end of the age.”

Why do we Fast?

19Then the disciples came to Jesus privately and said, “Why could we not cast it out?”
20So Jesus said to them, “Because of your unbelief; …
21 However, this kind does not go out except by prayer and fasting.”

    FASTING- Disconnecting from our world to RECONNECT w/ Our God

What we FORM Is even more important than what we FAST

How can I pray?
