Following Jesus takes intentional effort. Paul compares it to athletic training – we don’t earn salvation, but we work on our sanctification, becoming more like Jesus (1 Corinthians 9). As Dallas Willard said, “Grace is not opposed to effort, it is opposed to earning.”
🔼 UP – Deepening our relationship with God through worship, prayer, and His Word.
🤝 IN – Growing in community, building meaningful relationships, and sharpening one another.
🌍 OUT – Living on mission, sharing the whole Gospel, and serving as Jesus did.
Most of us are naturally stronger in one or two of these areas – but whole-life discipleship means growing in all three. What’s your next step? Let’s grow together as a family of Jesus followers!
