The Discipleship Pathway

January 4, 2026

About this message

We are always being formed—by what we give our attention to, who we listen to, and the rhythms that shape our days. Every habit is pointing us somewhere. The question isn’t whether formation is happening, but who is shaping us. Jesus’ invitation, “Come, follow me,” cuts through distracted, half-present faith and calls us into an intentional life of apprenticeship with Him.

This week, we’re launching our Discipleship Pathway—a clear way to follow Jesus together. At the center is Jesus Himself, not just what He teaches, but how He forms people over time. As we learn to be with Him, become like Him, and join Him in His Kingdom work, we discover a faith that reshapes every part of life. The invitation is still open to whoever is willing to take their next step on the way of Jesus.
