forming next generation followers of Jesus in a small group culture by being, becoming, and doing
Our Strategy
Forming next-generation followers of Jesus in a small group culture by being with Jesus, becoming like Jesus, and doing as Jesus did.
Let’s break that down…
We believe that every person and part of our ministry is formational in the lives of teens and has been entrusted to us by God.
Because of that, we meet in small groups where our efforts are aimed at connecting teens to a circle of trusted peers and adults who want to follow Jesus with every part of their lives.
Being with Jesus is to create intentional space to be in His presence.
Becoming like Jesus is to be formed by what He did.
Doing what Jesus did is to follow with your actions.
This is not a formula for an A+ relationship with Jesus, but rather a cycle that we believe, if done with a deep love and intention, will form teens into individuals who look more like Jesus!
*This discipleship strategy of being, becoming, and doing was adopted from Spiritual Formation author and theologian John Mark Comer in his book Practicing the Way.
