It’s a simple way to build deeper community and a greater sense of belonging, one meal and conversation at a time!

Making Disciples Class
THIS IS A 3 SUNDAY CLASS - October 5th, 12th, 19th from 11:00am - 12:45pm.
Although most Christians are familiar with Jesus' Great Commission to make disciples (Matthew 28:18-20), many find it difficult describing what discipleship is, and have an even more difficult time outlining a practical, Biblical approach to making disciples. Renew exists to make disciples who are renewed by the Gospel and become Gospel renewal to the city, and that's where the Making Disciples Class comes in. In this class we'll be teaching on and discussing the following questions:
1. What is discipleship?
2. Why do we make disciples?
3. How do we make disciples?
4. What is a Discipleship Group at Renew?
5. How do I lead a Discipleship Group?
6. How do I preach the Gospel?
Every disciple, or follower of Jesus, is called to make disciples. Together, let's find out how! To sign up, click below.
** Registration fee is $15.
PREREQUISITES:
Complete the first three chapters of the One2One app (meaning someone has taken you through the app one on one).
