I recommend the book _Transforming Discipleship_ by Greg Ogden.
It seems to me that discipleship, by definition, refers to faithful, committed people. An "unfaithful dsiciple" is somewhat of an oxymoron. Obviously, one is not a perfect disciple from the get-go, but a certain level of seriousness and commitment must be assumed if one is to make progress in becoming a better disciple. Otherwise, "disciple" simply becomes a synonym for a nominal Christian.
