What if the greatest threat to your faith is not that the enemy is stronger, but that he can convince you to fight alone? Jesus has already secured the victory, yet Scripture warns that we have an adversary who seeks to distract, divide, tempt, and devour.

Discipleship runs on the rails of the Gospel and relationships. Through the gospel, we discover how Jesus Christ has loved us and relate with us. Through relationships, the Holy Spirit teaches us to extend that same love to one another. This is the law of Christ: “As I have loved you, so you must love one another” (John 13:34).

We cannot fulfill what Jesus commands us to do in isolation. We must gather together so we can accept, challenge, and encourage one another through the hope we have in Jesus Christ. Together, we carry burdens, offer forgiveness, confess our sins, give comfort, and spur one another toward love and good deeds. What we receive from Jesus is what we give to one another. As we wrap God’s family around one another, the Holy Spirit uses gospel-centered relationships to transform us into the new humanity Jesus created us to be. Life change happens in community because transformation occurs through relationships.

There is always a way to respond in worship.

Jesus Christ’s love for me motivates me to use whatever influence, power, and resources He has entrusted to me to BLESS others.

God’s story in me is the story I will unashamedly share.

To have Jesus is to have life’s greatest good. That frees me to give generously.

I practice the rhythm of repentance because I know the mercy and love of the Father.

Prayer is humble submission to God’s will and dependence upon His mercy and grace because my faith is rooted in Who God is.

God transforms me as I read His word, believe it, and live by it daily.

Those who have faith in the resurrection of Jesus are revolutionaries who change the world.

I can be a true friend to others only when I am secure in Christ.

God uses the need in front of us to wake up the gift inside of us.

I will risk what I have when I have confidence in what I’ve received.

The mirror I look into shapes who I become.

I am empowered to stand fully equipped and ready as I hide God’s Word in my heart.

I memorize Scripture to seek God’s face and live as a fully alive disciple of Jesus.

The Holy Spirit empowers the body of Christ with spiritual gifts for the good of others and to advance the Kingdom of God.

The outcome of belonging to Jesus Christ is the Holy Spirit producing the character of Christ in me.

The Holy Spirit convicts me of my sin and empowers me to respond to temptations and trying situations by doing the loving thing instead of the selfish thing.

The Holy Spirit leads me to know God’s will to become like Jesus as I seek Him in prayer and submit to His Word.
