How does Luke see Discipleship?

Luke is comparatively less interested in the disciples as a distinct group but is more interested in people's reaction to Jesus. Luke calls a much larger group 'disciples' out of which Jesus chose twelve 'apostles'. These twelve are sent out on missions but only Luke tells us also of another seventy (or seventy-two in some manuscripts) being sent out in pairs. Only Luke mentions women disciples naming Mary Magdalene, Joanna (the wife of Herod's steward Chuza), Susanna, and many others, who provided financial support for the disciples. IN his unique story of Mary and Martha, Martha has a traditional view of the woman's place being in the kitchen: Jesus' acceptance of Mary as a disciple at His feet is radical indeed. Our discipleship can only try to mirror the disciple identities and actions as established by Jesus and recorded for us in the book of Luke.

well you only have to look at the bible to see how jesus asked his disciples to drop all they had 'leave your fishing nets and boats upon the shore' to see that discipleship is about saying yes to the lord. therefore if we define vocation as a call from god then we must also say yes, just as the disciples did.
