The diamond - the model
The front of the diamond of discipleship
I think in pictures. And when I think about a diamond I immediately get the picture in my head of a reversed triangle with a kind of crown on it. Some lines that gather together in a point on the bottom, et voilà. You get the picture? That’s a diamond.
The top of the diamond of discipleship
But there’s another dimension to this picture. When you would look at the diamond from above you would see a hexagon or ‘a-many-more-gon’. A kind of round form but then broken in a multitude of facets. Many facets. Do you get the picture? That’s a diamond and I want to also use this picture to think about discipleship. This is “the diamond of discipleship”.
