As we discuss what aids us in our growth as Christian disciples, we must talk about the sacraments. We must talk about them because to be a disciple is to live as Christ commanded, and Christ has commanded us to be baptized and to partake of his Body and Blood.

The saints guide us through their writings and their example. However, except under the very rare circumstance of an apparition, we don’t have the benefit of direct guidance from them, so we have to take what they said and apply it to our own lives.

Reading the Bible is the most direct way to receive the teaching of Jesus. But in Christian discipleship we can be mentored not just by the Master, but also by other more experienced disciples.
