“The effective Christians of history have been men and women of great personal discipline. The connection between the words disciple and discipline is obvious. To be a true, effective disciple of Christ we must seek to discipline our lives and endeavor to walk even as He walked.

We need a revival of Christian example, and that can only come when professed followers of Christ begin to practice Christian discipline.”
