Discipleship Program Begins
Exciting News
Redeemer Family,
As we approach the end of 2023 and eagerly anticipate the new year, I am thrilled to announce a groundbreaking initiative at Redeemer Church – the launch of our Discipleship Program. This innovative digital platform, designed specifically for those in our Grow Groups, is a game-changer in our collective commitment to Christ. It's tailor-made for those at Redeemer who desire to passionately pursue Jesus.
For everyone engaged in our Grow Groups, the Discipleship Program is more than just a digital tool; it's a commitment to accountability, which is essentially a synonym for speaking the truth in love. It aligns with our weekly Discipleship guide, ensuring that your Grow Group experience is all about transformation into Christ-likeness. This program represents a significant step towards unlocking a straightforward approach to walking with Jesus, side by side with our group.
As you read on, you'll discover the compelling features of this program and how it can revolutionize the way we grow in Christ together.
Why the Discipleship Program?
Over the past three years, through numerous pastoral conversations, we've identified a need for a more structured approach to discipleship. This need is particularly evident in overcoming daily challenges in our walk with Christ, such as deepening trust in Jesus, consistently engaging with the Bible, and nurturing family worship. The Discipleship Program is our response to these challenges, helping us all more fully embrace the life of Jesus.
Daily Digital Nudges: Transforming Habits, Renewing Minds
At the core of this program are daily digital nudges. Inspired by Romans 12:2's call to be transformed by the renewal of our minds, these nudges are designed to integrate spiritual disciplines into our daily routines. You'll receive these nudges at the end of each lunch hour, encouraging you to pause, reflect, and engage with Jesus. This interaction is not just a reminder—it's a tool for reshaping our habits and aligning our daily walk with Christ.
Features of the Discipleship Program
User-Friendly Interface: Designed for simplicity. Each day, you'll receive a text, and before each Grow Group meeting, you can check your board.
Customizable Spiritual Commitments: After communicating with your Grow Group about your accountability goals, simply respond to the relevant questions on your daily form and skip the rest.
Dynamic Live Updates: The Accountability Dashboard allows you to track your weekly progress and stay on course with your spiritual commitments. Experience a shared journey with your Grow Group through live updates of each other's spiritual progress.
Embracing a Culture of Discipleship
This program is about more than digital interaction; it's about creating a new culture within our church—a culture where accountability, support, and growth are tangible realities. The Discipleship Program is a tool for living out our belief that Jesus should be at the center of everything we do.
How This Benefits Our Grow Groups
Integrating this program into our Grow Groups will enhance the quality of our gatherings. It provides a common foundation for discussions, accountability, and support as we pursue Jesus together. This integration is a meaningful step toward becoming a more cohesive and Christ-centered community.
Join Us on This Journey
As we roll out the Discipleship Program, I encourage each of you to embrace this opportunity. Let's use these tools to foster a deeper, more authentic relationship with Jesus, transforming not just our minds but our entire lives. Let's step into this new chapter together, growing as a Gospel-Centered Disciple-Making Family at Redeemer Church.
