MISSION
TO MAKE
CHRISTLIKE
DISCIPLES
IN THE
"I am the way and the truth
and the life"
JOHN 14:6
Discipleship is a journey of grace with
Jesus as our guide and companion.
Christian discipleship helps
believers grow in the Lord
Jesus Christ as they are equipped
by His Holy Spirit, who resides within them,
to overcome the pressures and trials of
this present life and become more
and more Christlike.
BELIEFS
THE WAY
prevenient grace
God PREPARES the path before us. His hand reaches out and beckons us to Him, drawing us into a deeper relationship with Him. This grace both precedes our response and enables our response.
THE TRUTH
saving grace
Jesus RESCUES us from sin and leads us into the truth that sets us free. We receive the gift of saving grace by believing in God. He redeems us, makes us a new creation, and adopts us into His family.
THE LIFE
sanctifying grace
The Holy Spirit EMPOWERS us to live a life fully consecrated to God. Sanctifying grace begins the moment we experience salvation. Initial sanctification is followed by spiritual growth in grace until, in a moment of full consecration and complete surrender on our part, God purifies and cleanses the heart.
DISCIPLES AND
DISCIPLE-MAKERS
ARE ABLE TO
SHARE THIS JOURNEY
OF GRACE BY...
WITNESSING: Every disciple of Jesus is called to share the story of God’s grace in his or her own life with others. As we make disciples, we must tell and retell the story of God’s grace in our lives and the lives of others.
WALKING: God does not make Christlike disciples in a moment. The journey of grace spans a lifetime. Christ calls His followers to a journey with others from no faith to new faith to mature faith. The journey with others takes patience. It takes love. It takes grace!
