Discipleship

When I am lifted up from the earth, I will draw all men to myself.
Jesus, John 12:32 (NIV)


We are celebrating a successful Harvest Crusade with Greg Laurie at the Allstate Arena. We believe God’s Spirit is being poured out on our city with tremendous fruit to follow. Let’s continue to pray for God to send revival to our city!

Our church has been entrusted to reach out and disciple some of the new converts from this past weekend. In a letter that was sent to those who responded to the Gospel message we gave four action steps for them to take after their conversion. It’s good advice for all of us. Allow me to share them with you.
  • Read your Bible daily. His Word is our source of spiritual food and provides direction for us in all matters of life.
  • Pray. Let your prayers be a two-way communication wherein you bring your requests to Him, and more importantly, where He can speak to you.
  • Get connected and committed to a good Bible teaching church family where the Bible is taught faithfully. Where you fellowship will have a tremendous impact on your spiritual growth, maturity, and your fulfillment as a Christian.
  • Lastly... be sure to share your faith with others, for in doing so you will be strengthened as a believer, and others will hear the “good news” of Jesus Christ.
Continue to pray for those who surrendered their hearts and lives to Christ this weekend! And may we as a church always embrace our sacred mission of evangelism and discipleship!
