Teach the Bible—and you will find yourself being formed more fully into the image of Christ. You discover you are the one who must rely on Jesus more than ever. You are the one who begins to see more of the beauty of who he is. You are the one who grows increasingly aware that to say I follow Jesus means I must walk as he walked.
