    based on 5 ratings
     | 14,825 views

    Every believer is called to be a disciple of Christ. It is up to us individually to heed the call to follow the Lord as His disciples.

    The Call to Discipleship Matthew 4:19 As much as it hurts to admit, I truly believe the church has failed miserably in one vital area of ministry. Throughout the 80’s and 90’s there was a concerted effort to reach unbelievers with the Gospel, and the church rose to the call to ...read more

    Being a disciple of Christ requires a conscious, committed effort. We will never be effective disciples with a casual, unconcerned approach. It is a lifestyle we are called to commit ourselves unto.

    The Commitment to Discipleship Luke 9: 23-26 Let me begin by asking, how many Christians do you know? That is a difficult question isn’t it? Now it seems that everyone you talk to concerning the Lord has had some type of experience. Well, yes I’m a Christian; I was baptized and joined ...read more

    We live in an age when most are not receptive to the Gospel. Many believers lack confidence in their ability to share their faith. How do we gain confidence to be an effective disciple and witness? The answer is in Christ alone.

    The Confidence in Discipleship John 15:7-11 If you have been with us for the past few weeks considering discipleship, you have realized following the Lord is not for the faint of heart or uncommitted. The Lord has spoken about denying ourselves, bearing our cross, and following Him. He spoke of ...read more

    The Credibility In Discipleship Series

     | 7,063 views

    Many are skeptical of the church because of perceived hypocrites. How do we obtain credibility in our witness to others? How do live and walk in such a way to be an effective witness? We must walk in Christ to possess the credibility we need.

    The Credibility in Discipleship Ephesians 5:1-2; John 13:34-35 We have spent several weeks discussing the importance and need for discipleship. In the Great Commission, Jesus commanded us to teach all nations to observe His teachings. In essence, those who follow Christ as His disciples are ...read more

    Jesus didn't stop with teaching about the freedom that leads to bondage; He also spoke of a bondage that leads to freedom.. A true disciple is one who has renounced his or her way to follow the way of Christ.

    Christians are commanded to make disciples. The process of discipleship includes: going; baptising; teaching. The responsibility devolves upon each follower of the Christ.
