  • The Discipleship Series: Part 2
    May 22 2023

    Why is there so much confusion about discipleship? In the church we have turned discipleship into a program that must be led by the elite Christian teachers. Is that what Jesus envisioned for discipleship? Is there a different way? In this episode Pastor Bryan attempts to bring some clarity to the issue of discipleship and encourage all believers to become disciple makers.

  • The Discipleship Series: Part 1
    May 15 2023

    What is the deal with discipleship? Why has the church not been very effective at making disciples? In this new series Pastor Bryan dives into all things discipleship. Christians should be known as relational disciple makers. This was the plan that Jesus used in his ministry and what he commanded us to do as his followers (Matthew 28:18-20). Join us on this adventure through what it means to be a disciple and how we can become disciple making multipliers.
