A disciple is a follower, a student, and a learner. As disciples of Jesus Christ, the direction and aim of our lives is to be obedient to Jesus Christ and His teachings as revealed in the Bible. Discipleship, therefore, refers to the process of incorporating Jesus’ teachings into one’s habits and life. And for Bannertown Baptist Church, discipleship is not a program but rather the very culture of our church – why we exist. It’s in our mission statement that we’ve been reciting every week for over a year now. And that is why we have weekly Discipleship Classes here at Connect. Where we
- Study the Bible
Our Discipleship Classes study God’s Word in small group where we dive deep into the Word. - Fellowship with one another
Fellowship is more than eating food together, it is about sharing life together. - Pray with one another
We are called to “bear one another’s burdens” (Gal. 6:2). Praying for one another is an important function of our discipleship classes. - Grow in spiritual maturity
Our Discipleship Classes are a pathway to spiritual growth through the transformative power of God’s Word. As we study His Word, He transforms us into disciples of Jesus Christ — life-long learners and leaders. - Live out our church’s mission.
Our church’s mission is "Growing in Christ, Worshiping Christ and Pointing others to Christ."
