Basically to be a Christian is to live as Christ lived. I mean basically we are to pick up our crosses daily and follow after him. One way to become a better Christian is to be diving into the scriptures and be on our knees and praying! The best example we can follow is Christ himself and one of my personal favorite examples is this: "8And being found in appearance as a man, he humbled himself and became obedient to death—even death on a cross!" And that is found in Philippians 2:8. I mean you really can't get a better example than that!!!
