What is a Disciple?
A disciple is someone who follows Jesus, learning from His teachings and modeling their life after His example. They grow through the Word, prayer, and community, while helping others do the same. Jesus Himself calls us to be His disciples. Find out more about what that looks like below.
The First Step: Having Jesus
The Bible says that you must be born again to go to Heaven, but what does that mean? (John 3:7)
To be born again means to ask Jesus to live in your life and wipe your slate clean, almost like you are being reborn fresh and new. If you haven't made that decision to live for Jesus yet and have him live in your heart, it is never too late to ask him. There are two things you must do to give your life over to Jesus. The first is believing that He is the Son of God, that He died on the cross, and that He rose from the dead. The second is to repent, this simply means to turn around from the way your are living now, and follow after Him. There is a cost of salvation, we strive to live sinless to follow Jesus. If you have not made the decision to give your life to Jesus, today is your day.
(1 Corinthians 6:2)
If you would like to make the decision to accept Jesus. Repeat this prayer out with your whole heart.
"Dear Lord,
I can't do this life alone, I am a sinner and I need you,
fill my heart, make me new, I repent from all my sinful ways, I give my life to you, thank you for your sacrifice, I love you,
in Jesus' name, I pray, Amen"

The Next Step: Walking With Jesus
Welcome to the journey of following Jesus! Discipleship is all about growing in your relationship with Him; learning who He is, what He’s done for you, and how to live out your faith every day.
Your journey begins with the First Steps Videos, a short, encouraging series that helps you understand what just happened when you gave your life to Christ, what the Bible is, and what it means to truly repent and follow Jesus.
Next, you’ll start the 15-Day Bible Reading Plan. Each day you’ll read from different parts of the Bible that all connect around one theme, helping you see how consistent and powerful God's Word really is. It’s a great way to learn how to read the Bible and hear from God through Scripture and prayer.
Also, you’re invited to join the Next Steps Discipleship Class, an 8-week small group where you’ll grow deeper in your faith, meet other believers, and learn the foundational truths that every follower of Jesus should know. The group meets every Thursday at 7 PM, and you can join us by clicking the button below.
Discipleship isn’t about having all the answers, it’s about taking one step at a time, walking with Jesus, and letting Him transform your life. We’re here to walk with you every step of the way.
