Describe how a Christian may follow the call to discipleship through daily life and work.
The word discipleship comes from the Latin word-meaning learner. Jesus was a teacher and he chose 12 people to be his disciples. These disciples had the duty to follow Jesus, they preached from the Gospel’s and Jesus’ teachings. They lived their life in service of others and the lord.
A Christian may serve God through vocation. Vocation comes from the Latin word-meaning calling. Jesus had a vocation, the gospels indicate that when Jesus was baptised, he heard the voice of God calling him, he received the Holy Spirit. There are three types of vocation, religious, ordained and Laity. All vocations are said to be equal and all vocations serve the same lord.
