During this last mini-series within the ‘Year of Biblical Literacy,’ we’re exploring ‘The Moral Vision of the NT’ and asking the question: How do our lives continue to tell the true story of God?”

If a disciple is someone who is increasingly submitting all of their lives to the empowering presence of Jesus Christ and teaching others to do the same — Then Jesus’ love is the motivation and power to do that.

Being a disciple of Jesus means being with Jesus, becoming like Jesus, and doing what Jesus does. The more we do this, the more we embrace His service to us and our freedom to truly serve others.

Being a disciple means continually submitting yourself to the lordship and empowering presence of Jesus. The heart of a disciple is obedience fueled by thankfulness and joy.

Because Jesus is God incarnate and the perfect human, he has perfect character. That perfect character enables and equips Him to heal both physical and spiritual illness — especially sin.

The only true Christianity is one where people become disciples of Jesus Christ — Fully submitting every area of their lives to His empowering presence and lordship and teaching others to do the same.

A Creative Minority is deeply committed to responding to the world around us first and foremost with a heartfelt petition to the Lord through prayer — then acting in step with the Spirit.

Not only does a Creative Minority respond externally with alternative allegiance, but they also order their internal lives around it. When we do this, we are more freed to live in the world — by the power of the Spirit — with Redemptive Participation.

As Christians, we are called to live faithfully as dual-citizens of both our earthly home and the Kingdom of Heaven. What does this really look like? Where do our allegiances lie? Listen in as we discuss being a citizen vs. being a zealot.
