Discipleship is applying biblical information towards life transformation. We believe discipleship is more than a program or class; it is a lifetime commitment to following Jesus. It means becoming more like Jesus. We experience discipleship through our weekly gatherings, growing with others in community, and expressing God’s love and hope through serving those around us. These tools and resources will help you thrive and assist you on your faith journey. Select one of the areas below you would like to grow in:

We believe the book of John is one of the greatest places to start when discovering the bible. The book focuses on the life of Jesus, answering the questions of who Jesus was, why he died, and what that means for us today.

Prayer doesn’t need to be a well-thought-out essay, profound, or even scary. Maybe you have been in a church service when the Pastor began to pray with big words and profound statements, and you have thought “I could never do that.” Relax, prayer is as simple as having a conversation with God.
The “PRAY” prayer method is simply an acronym for four elements of prayer that can keep you focused on God and what you are praying about.
P- PRAISE is how we celebrate God for what he has done.
R- REQUEST what you need, maybe healing, or help.
A- ADMIT is the way we acknowledge the wrong in our lives and ask for forgiveness.
Y- YIELD is when we stop talking and give God a chance to talk to us.

The Bible can seem intimidating at times and even difficult to understand, but knowing where to start and how to read the Bible is the biggest battle. We believe the Bible is the inspired word of God. It’s the main way God communicates with us, so reading the Bible is instrumental in our Spiritual growth.
The “SOAP” acronym is a four-step process designed to help us get the most from our Bible reading.
S- SCRIPTURE is a way God chooses to communicate with us and the best place to start.
O- OBSERVE what the scripture says. It might help to picture yourself as part of the story.
A- APPLY the point of the passage to your life today. What can you learn from the text?
P- PRAY over what you have read and ask the Lord to help you learn from it.

Life can be hard and sometimes even a little messy, but the great thing is you don’t have to do it alone! God gave us the church so we can have people walk with us through all the craziness life brings. Getting involved in church puts people in your corner, surrounds you with friends, and helps you grow together. Some of the ways you can continue to grow in your faith here at Heritage are: making your faith public through water baptism, joining a group to learn from each other and ask hard questions, and serving on a team to share what the Lord has done in your life.
