Our Mission: To Make More and Better Disciples
The Call of Jesus is a Call to a
And he said to all, “If anyone would come after me, let him deny himself and take up his cross daily and follow me. —Luke 9:23 (ESV)
The call of Jesus to Follow ME is a call to:
1. Follow Jesus
Follow my example, as I follow the example of Christ. —1 Corinthians 11:1 (NIV)
So they called them and charged them not to speak or teach at all in the name of Jesus. But Peter and John answered them, “Whether it is right in the sight of God to listen to you rather than to God, you must judge, for we cannot but speak of what we have seen and heard.” —Acts 4:18-20 (ESV)
2. Follow Jesus
The Lord says: “These people come near to me with their mouth and honor me with their lips, but their hearts are far from me. Their worship of me is made up only of rules taught by men. —Isaiah 29:13 (NIV)
3. Follow Jesus in a
And he appointed twelve (whom he also named apostles) so that they might be with him and he might send them out to preach —Mark 3:14 (ESV)
“Disciples of Jesus are those who are with him, learning to be like him. That is, they are learning to lead their life, their actual existence, as he would lead their life if he were they.” —Dallas Willard
And this is eternal life, that they know you the only true God, and Jesus Christ whom you have sent. —John 17:3 (ESV)
But whatever gain I had, I counted as loss for the sake of Christ. Indeed, I count everything as loss because of the surpassing worth of knowing Christ Jesus my Lord. —Philippians 3:7-8 (ESV)
Because your steadfast love is better than life, my lips will praise you. So I will bless you as long as I live; in your name I will lift up my hands. My soul will be satisfied as with fat and rich food, and my mouth will praise you with joyful lips, —Psalm 63:3-5 (ESV)
