Why Discipleship? 

We believe that the Bible teaches that every Christian is called to a lifelong journey of discipleship.  Jesus called his followers to BE disciples, and to MAKE disciples.  Discipleship is intentionally equipping believers with the Word of God through accountable relationships, and through the empowerment of the Holy Spirit, in order to reproduce faithful followers of Christ.  In other words, we want to be a church of disciples who make disciples.
