What is a Disciple?

This is a core question, isn't it?

It's a term that we toss around all the time. There has been some indication here and elsewhere that not everybody has the same idea of what it means to be a disciple.

I'm curious whether or not we are basically on the same page here, or whether there is a wide divergence.

Our mission is supposed to involve making 'more and better disciples.'

Jesus commanded his disciples to go and make disciples.

So, what is a disciple?

In a followup post, we'll talk more about how one is made.

I'll post my own thoughts in a comment. I'd really like to hear several people weigh in on this. If you're a blog reader but haven't posted, consider jumping in on this one.
