Test Of Discipleship Priorities
If we took an honest look at our lives, what would our choices reveal about our priorities ? What do we love most, and what are we pursuing? As believers in Christ, we’re called to recognize where we are spiritually - and keep growing. Whether we’re just beginning or have walked with the Lord for years, there’s more to learn and put into practice. Are we resisting the pull of the world and investing in what lasts forever?
