As Christ-followers, we commit to a lifelong journey of learning and experience in an effort to grow our faith. The term discipleship articulates this journey, where we are not only called to learn the teachings of Jesus Christ, but also to live them. As members of FirstChurch, our primary charge is to grow disciples, and that begins with each of us.
While there are infinite ways to experience God’s grace, three primary points of connection comprise discipleship:
Worship: As we hear and study God’s Word, we begin to understand the nature and purpose of God.
Learning: As we engage in critical study, both alone and with others, we more fully appreciate the meaning behind God’s Word, how the Holy Spirit guides us, and how we can share faith with others.
Service: As we move into deeper relationship with God, the changes that take place within us call us to love others through action.
At FirstChurch, we’re offering ways to experience these connection points through both community and personal devotion (piety). This discipleship guide contains information that will guide you along your personal discipleship journey. For questions, contact Rev. Evan Jones at ejones@fumcdallas.org.
