The Pursuit: Exploring Your Life in Christ – March Sermon Series
The Pursuit: Exploring Your Life in Christ
A disciple is more than an educated believer; a disciple wants to become like Christ. When we talk about what it means to be a disciple of Christ, we need to have a working New Testament definition of what Jesus had in mind (and put into practice) when he called, equipped, and commissioned his disciples.
If you were to condense the New Testament teachings regarding discipleship, you could summarize it as follows: Disciples are made when people pursue Christ by loving God, uniting with believers, serving the world, and entrusting the Gospel. Each of these aspects zero in on the three key relationships for every believer—our relationship with God, our relationship with other believers, and, finally, our relationship with the world.
How it works:
The Pursuit is divided into four weeks with six devotions per week. If you get behind on a day or so, that’s okay. The free days will allow you time to get caught up. If you need to take more than thirty days to complete the guide, that is fine too! This is a guide to help, not a law to obey. Enjoy the time with God. Focus on him. Take some notes and watch the way he transitions personal devotion into relational growth.
