Fearful and disqualified mentality as it relates to discipleship (defined later)
1) in the land of the blind
2) Dr coleman – what the key? – word of god and prayer – simple not easy

anyone passionately following jesus qualified (JESUS QUALIFIES – about him)

cost of true disicpleship –
Galatians 2:20 – I have been crucified with Christ; it is no longer I who live
Genesis 9:7 – Be fruitful and multiply
John 12:24 – Unless a seeds falls to the ground and dies
