Learn how to develop a more intimate relationship with God.

Equipped Disciple is a ministry that teaches, clarifies, and helps you practice spiritual disciplines that root, deepen, and strengthen your walk with Christ.

Through the context of personal time with God and small group interaction, experience life transformation as you consistently practice and grow in the areas of Bible study, prayer, fellowship, and sharing your faith.

Equipped Disciple

The primary objective this training series is to take life changing steps toward a closer, more intimate relationship with God by learning, practicing, and becoming consistent in the basics. Each class is 11 weeks long and builds on the previous class.

Equipped Disciple 1

Equipped Disciple 1 introduces you to the basic disciplines that transform your walk with Christ, providing you with a keener sense of priorities and a renewed concern for your non-Christian friends. The basic disciplines taught in ED 1 are reading the Bible regularly, communicating with God through prayer, and systematic scripture memory.

Equipped Disciple 2

Equipped Disciple 2 takes the roots established in the first class deeper into the fertile soil of a growing relationship with God. You will experience transformation and victory as you consistently practice the basics and grow in the areas of God’s Word, prayer, fellowship, and sharing your faith. Graduation from ED 1 is a prerequisite to attending ED 2.

Equipped Disciple 3

Equipped Disciple 3 equips you to branch out and impact your world as you continue to grow in character and skill through the practice of the disciplines of fruitful living. Intimacy with God will form in you a strong desire for a lifelong commitment of knowing Christ and making Christ known. Graduation from ED 1 & 2 is a prerequisite to attending ED 3.
