The Essentials…
At Zion, we believe that God is calling believers in Jesus to go beyond merely ‘believing’ in Jesus, to being His ‘disciples’ - - people who are sold out to the teachings and truths of Jesus. We have come to recognize that the more one is involved in the following “Essentials of Christian Discipleship” the more well-rounded a disciple of Jesus one will be…
"Individually and with others, receiving God’s teaching, guidance, forgiveness, correction and encouragement in Christ, and bringing to God our thanks, praise, adoration and repentance."
"Talking and listening to God.”
LEARNING:
"Growing in understanding of all that God has revealed through His Word, the Scriptures, and responding with God-pleasing attitudes, choices and actions."
"Bringing God's love and His reconciliation invitation to the people of this world through worshipping, learning, serving, caring, connecting with others, and praying."
"Connecting with others by investing in meaningful relationships where Christ is honored and all are built up and enriched."
"Bringing the care, support and love of God to all people, especially those in physical, emotional and spiritual need."
SERVING:
"Actively using my unique, gifts, passions, abilities, personality, experiences, possessions and resources for the benefit of others."
