Mike Blake, son of a pastor, had his time away from the Lord. But in the process of returning, he attended Joe White’s Men at the Cross event (www.menatthecross.org) in St. Louis, MO. A fire was “lit” within that resulted in a new passion for Jesus and His word. His doing a personal Bible study -- with a focus on the book of Matthew -- resulted in Mike Blake’s discovering Five Characteristics of a Disciple, which he summarizes in this radio discussion…and practices in his church and lifestyle.
