John Stott's bestselling volume: The Contemporary Christian: An Urgent Plea for Double Listening, updated and presented for today's audience

If Christ is our Lord, then we are his servants, and if he is our teacher, then we are his pupils.

Following Christ is a multi-faceted responsibility. We should remember:

* Every true disciple is a listener
* We are both rational and emotional
* We can discern God's call and will

Love is the first fruit of the Spirit, a core ingredient of discipleship.

John Stott exercised a worldwide ministry as a church leader, Bible expositor and author. His bestselling books have been translated into numerous languages, won many awards and shaped whole generations of ministers, thinkers, writers and bloggers. John was Rector Emeritus of All Souls, Langham Place, London and Founder-President of the Langham Partnership. He was awarded the CBE in the Queen's 2006 New Year honours. 39
