We all want to grow in our walk with God and discover how we can make a difference with our lives. Jesus taught his disciples how to live lives of greatness, but it doesn’t look like what you might expect. We want to share with you something that has the potential to alter and improve the course of your life. All you need is a free evening each week and time on the weekends to plug in at Victory Faith. Once a week for six months you will dive deeper into the word, build stronger relationships with other Christians, and grow together in your walk with God. You’ll be trained how to live a life of greatness by following Christ’s example and serving in practical ways. Through all of this you’ll be trained, equipped, and encouraged to make a difference with your life.

Discipleship is a term used in the time of Jesus to reflect the relationship between a philosopher or theologian and his students who would do life together. The disciples identified themselves as followers to the teacher and would live by what he taught. Jesus was more than a philosopher and empowered His followers to be more than mere men and women, He sent them out with a mission to change the world by preaching the Gospel and establishing communities of believers. We model our class after five pillars of Discipleship through which we observe in the New Testament.

THE FIVE PILLARS

1. COMMUNITY
-The Disciples hung out, prayed, ate, and lived together.
2. THE PRESENCE OF GOD
-Encountering God in all areas of your life.
3. POSITIONING YOURSELF AS A STUDENT TO GOD’S WORD
-They sat at the feet of Jesus and listened to Him teach.
-The Disciples internalized and lived those teachings.
4. SERVANTHOOD
-They served Jesus, each other, and many communities.
5. DEDICATION
-They dedicated the rest of their lives to the message of the Gospel.

We are a six month Discipleship Program designed for anyone who desires a deeper relationship with God, His promises, and those in the community around us. The School of Discipleship is modeled for people who deeply desire to encounter God in their lives and live a life of greatness. Weekly, we will build a sense of community and purpose while diving deeper in the Word, build healthy habits for growing in our walk with God, and encourage each other through prayer and servanthood. Through this School, you will be challenged, equipped, and released to share the love of Christ and bring people to Jesus.


SCHOOL OF DISCIPLESHIP EXPECTATIONS
We have created this list of expectations as a guideline for you to follow during this season of unique pursuit of God. Our intent is to encourage a heart of dedication throughout your commitment to this class. Our desire for you is unparalleled growth in your life. These expectations exist to facilitate that, and to nurture a habit of self discipline.
