Your heavenly Father's goal is for you is to mature and develop the characteristics of
Jesus Christ, living a life of love and humble service.  Spiritual growth is not
automatic.  Discipleship-the process of becoming like Christ - always begins with a
decision.  You are invited to be part of this journey together with Him.

"Come, be my disciple," Jesus said to him.  So Matthew
got up and followed him."
            (Matthew 9:9)

Discipleship is an intentional choice we make to grow to maturity in faith in Christ.  
"Take time and trouble to keep yourself spiritually fit."  (I Timothy 4:7)  One of the
wonderful examples and opportunities here is to become involved in one of several  
Discipleship Studies and having a
purpose driven life.

Two  S.A.L.L.T., small Bible study groups.  These exciting and  
enjoyable experiences assist participants to  grow in their relationship
with Jesus, and other Christians.   The Sharing and Living Life
Together Bible study is an exciting journey in faith.  This is a great
first step for new or older experience Christians to take in renewal of
their faith.

Youth Ministry too is about growing as young people in Discipleship.  For  youth too it
is  about fostering deep and significant connections with emerging generations.  It is
about developing relationships between the Lord and other young people.  It is
helping young people to cope with tensions and conflicts effectively in the world in
which they will be living.

Sunday Morning Early Bird Bible Study begins at 8:15 a.m. in Fellowship Hall.  It is a
great way to start the morning off with a cup of coffee, some Christian fellowship and
gain some insights into three texts from the Bible prior to worship beginning.  An
advance handout of the Scriptures is available
here.

Our
Intergenerational Sunday School at 10:15 furthers communication between the
ages very effectively, and understanding significant questions in daily life while based
on the Bible.  Each week young people and adults are learning together from one
another.  Each are given opportunities to take home material that will further
communication in home, and to grow in their relationship with the Lord.  You too are
welcome to this wonderful opportunity.  A study entitled "God Is Here" and
reflections on worship and life continues throughout the month of March.

The
Seekers Study is for those of us, churched or unchurched who are asking those
significant questions of life like "why am I here?," or "what is the purpose of life?"  
These one hour popular  studies  on Thursday evenings, consist of short video
curriculum courses open to anyone interested in learning more about Jesus.  A study
following Easter will begin Thursday, April 8th. entitled John 3:16, based on the book
by the same title written by Max Lucado.
