“WHAT MILLENNIALS REALLY WANT FROM THE CHURCH IS NOT A CHANGE IN STYLE BUT A CHANGE IN SUBSTANCE.” - Rachel Held Evans, CNN beliefs blog

“The American church is dying, not from lack of effective evangelism, nor from lack of resources, but from lack of effective discipleship.” - Michael Ramsden, European Director of Ravi Zacharias Ministries.

“When a person makes a confession of faith and is never taken through a formal discipleship process, there is little hope of seeing genuine spiritual transformation.” - Dr. Howard Hendricks, Dallas Theological Seminary

Who is a disciple?

A disciple is a life long process of someone who learns the gospel, relates to the gospel and communicates the gospel.

Who is a disciple? A disciple is a life long process of someone who learns the gospel, relates to the gospel and communicates the gospel. The Gospel both MAKES and MATURES us as disciples

“And he gave the apostles, the prophets, the evangelists, the shepherds and teachers, to equip the saints for the work of ministry, for building up the body of Christ” Ephesians 4:11-12
