Understanding Discipleship

After Christ’s death and resurrection, He left His disciples with the Great Commission (Matthew 28:18-20), in which He told them to go and make disciples of all nations.  A disciple is not only someone who loves Jesus but someone who follows His Word and seeks to continue to multiply disciples. 

Pre-discipleship is as simple as forming a relationship with someone (e.g. Going on coffee dates, surf sesh, etc.)!

We do it in order to evaluate if someone is F.L.A.T.

What is a F.L.A.T. Disciple?

• • • Faithful:
      Someone committed to showing up to small group every week (or on a regular basis) to grow in their spiritual journey 

    • Leadership potential:
      Stepping up to help lead a group discussion at group events.

    • Available:
      Making time / having it as a priority to walk with God in busy college life 

    • Teachable:
