Discipleship Walk -- http://www.discipleshipwalk.orgMy company Cylliance Corp recently launched a new version of the Discipleship Walk website.   There isn't much public content yet, but most of the functionality is in the private Community area.   If you've been on a previous Walk, make sure to logon and check it out.  If you don't know the username/password ask someone who's been on a Walk.

Check out the site here:   http://www.DiscipleshipWalk.org

If you've never been on a Discipleship Walk, I'd encourage you to check it out and get more information.

Follow The Leader

Bill Wolfe, 2/20/2009 1:14:00 PM
I've been thinking about what it means to really lead your kids.  As a dad, I often wonder how my actions affect my boys.   When I'm busy or too pre-occupied with thoughts about work, are they saving that behavior away in their mind?   When I try and teach them a concept about character development, are they listening, are they saving that thought away in their mind?

As husbands and fathers we are called to be the leader in our homes.  A picture of the game "follow the leader" jumped into my mind.   Our kids are following us.  They're following our actions, our behaviors.  The good and the bad.  The question is:  Who are we following?   After all, most people are following someone or something.

I've been working on a speech I have to give in a few weeks on Discipleship.   The speech has really come together, but now it's got me thinking about what Discipleship looks like between a father and son.   I would submit that before the father can ever disciple his son or really lead his son, he has to submit to being led by Jesus Christ.   

I'm still chewing on this, but more thoughts to come.
