Following Jesus
“Discipleship is commitment to Christ… Christianity without the living Jesus Christ remains necessarily a Christianity without discipleship; and a Christianity without discipleship is always a Christianity without Jesus Christ.”
The earliest Christians were called, simply, those who “belonged to the Way.” The reference is significant: being a Christian isn’t just a matter of intellectual assent - it’s a way of life. During the Lent season, we’ll be reflecting on what it means to live as a disciple of Jesus - to become the kind of person who learns to live his Way. So, whether you’re just beginning to explore Christian teaching or you’re a lifelong believer, join us as we explore what it means to live a life that follows Jesus!
