In our rapidly changing world, the Lord is in the process of building and refining His people to equip us to face any potential challenges that may lie ahead. God desires we seek Him with all our heart; and as we do, the worries and cares of the world quickly fade into the background and true peace becomes ours. God wants us to understand the depth of His love for us and the deep relationship He desires to share with us.
The Bible is living and active and shaper than any two-edged sword. We come to know God intimately as we hide it in our hearts. We seek to develop disciples that have a relationship with Jesus that has been nurtured through a love and dedication to God’s Word, the Bible.
There is a cost involved in becoming a disciple of Jesus. The Bible refers to it as the “pearl of great price” that we give everything to own. This involves embracing the values of commitment, repentance, obedience, sacrifice, and surrender (cross).
A serious disciple desires to live by the life values of honesty, truth, integrity, and will maintain a pure heart. We must guard our hearts and keep a conscience that is pure before the Lord so that our prayers are not hindered, and to live a life in the service of others.
Our goal in making disciples is to train and inspire Christian believers to become people with the character and priorities of our King, Jesus Christ. We desire to partner with Jesus to build people of Christ-like moral character who walk in the fruit of the Holy Spirit and love the Lord with all their heart, soul, mind, and strength.
We desire to equip each disciple with the knowledge of their own personal gifts and strengths, and to understand what God expects of us as His beloved children, and His ambassadors in this world.
Developing a deep love for God and for others, even our enemies, must be the goal of each disciple if we seek to be conformed to the image of Jesus. In doing so, our hearts will become dedicated to the mission Jesus gave us of making disciples who will make disciples of others. Living for God and for others and working toward eternal goals that produce fruit which can never be lost or fade away brings true joy and abundant life.
