Etymology
Discipleship comes from disciple, meaning a follower or 'student', plus the ending -ship, which means 'state' or 'condition'. Disciple comes from an old Latin word meaning 'to learn', like the word discipline which is about training, so discipleship is the state of following and learning from a teacher.
