Making a Motto for Ministry a Biblical Reality

I have had for years a motto for my life and ministry as a biblical Christian husband, father, friend, brother, preacher, pastor-teacher, and president & professor of a divinity school.   The motto simply states, "Training Disciples to Think and Act Biblically". 

If we, the Church of Jesus Christ, would train disciples to think biblically, then most assuredly they would at the least learn to act biblically...but then that reveals three possible and probable realities: 

(1) the actions being displayed are telling that the Bible is or isn't thought of; 
(2) the training is or isn't from the Bible;
(3) but then again, there are those who just aren't "DISCIPLES" -- whether they are doing the training, or are the one's being trained.
