Discipleship Resources
The Discipleship Pathway
Worship
We desire every member to gather on Sundays in Corporate Worship and spend time daily in Personal Worship.
Community Groups
We desire every member to gather around the Word in Community Groups. Community Groups are small groups of believers that gather around the Word and are committed to four primary places that promote a healthy, biblical community.
Discipleship Groups
We desire every member to gather for accountability in Discipleship Groups. A Discipleship Group (D-Group) is a small group consisting of 3–5, gender-specific church members meeting weekly or bi-weekly for accountability and discussion.
Mission
We desire every member to live on Mission. We believe it is not only about being a disciple of Christ but that we are to go and make disciples. Making disciples happens in the home, the church, our schools, and workplace, with our neighbors, and as we are sent to the nations.

The F260 Reading Plan guides you through the 66 books of the Bible in one year, while still having the flexibility of reading 5 days per week.
The M'Cheyne Reading Plan is based on Robert M’Cheyne's reading system, featuring four different readings for use in both family and personal devotions. Each day has two passages from the Old Testament, one from the New Testament, and one from the Psalms or the Gospels. Purchase For the Love of God, Volume 1 or Volume 2 in the Resource Center to go along with this Reading Plan.
The Through The Bible Reading Plan leads you through the entire Bible in 11 months. A portion of the book of Psalms and one gospel will be read each quarter.
The One-Year Chronological Plan will take you through the Bible in chronological order. This plan also provides flexibility by only providing readings six days of a week.
The Two-Year Plan will take you through the entire Bible in two years. For those who would like to take more time, this plan provides flexibility by reading five days a week, with built-in Easter and Christmas reading plans.
