Discipleship: Helping New Christians Grow in the Faith

By Jacob Bundy, Thursday, March 14, 2024

One of the great joys of the Christian life is helping to nurture the faith of young Christians. There’s just nothing like leading someone to Christ and then encouraging them as they take steps of faith and grow in the Lord. 

In its pure definition, New Testament discipleship means to be a fully-committed follower of Christ. This commitment should be the very DNA of our Christian walk.

Resolution: Invite Someone to Church

By Dave Delaney, Tuesday, January 12, 2021
My father was not raised in church. When he was in his early 20’s, someone invited him to a church service. As a result of being invited to church, Jesus changed his life forever. My dad got saved that night, ended up going to a Baptist college and met his wife (my mom). My brothers and sister and I were raised in a Christian home because somebody invited him to church.

Different to Make a Difference

Sanctification Should Open Doors for Soulwinning
I have concluded that it is far easier for God’s people to be different than it is for us to make a difference. In fact, it is often far more comfortable and convenient, even satisfying, to retreat into our minds, our homes, our churches, and celebrate our being different than the world, while smugly thinking ourselves to be a little better. However, that is not what the Lord commanded us to do.

4 Reasons Your Community Feels Hard

By Dr. Rick Flanders, Monday, March 12, 2018
The Fields Are Actually White unto Harvest
Across the nation, pastors and the members of their churches have convinced themselves the reason they are not reaping a spiritual harvest that could be called “plenteous” is that their town is hard, and unusually unresponsive to evangelism. It is as if we think that souls could be won and churches could be built some places, but not in our town.

7 Tips for Training a New Soulwinner

By Dr. Paul Chappell, Monday, October 2, 2017
There Is No substitute for One on One Training
We recently launched our fall soulwinning season for the thirty-second consecutive year at Lancaster Baptist Church. Of all the different types of outreach we do as a church, nothing beats consistently sharing the gospel one person at a time. And biblically, this is a process that is to be taught and replicated one person at a time as well.
