The topic we settled on was to look at what it means to be a fully devoted follower of Jesus, and I set about thinking how to answer that question without simply searching out Biblical support for the kind of thing evangelicals would naturally associate with discipleship. I wanted to try to get behind the models and patterns with which we are so familiar.
In the end the talk was a bit too long, and having delivered it once, I now have a better idea of how I would structure it to deliver the same content but in slightly more logical order. But I really enjoyed the opportunity and the challenge of doing some bigger picture thinking in this area. Discipleship remains a passion for me, and I only wish I were more personally disciplined in my approach to following Jesus.
As I review my notes, I think I'll try to blog the ideas and questions.
