Sermons About Discipleship
Play Ball
“Denying ourselves” in the sense that Jesus uses it, means more than just doing without. It’s more than “giving to the poor” or working in a food bank, although those things matter too. Denying ourselves means embracing the gospel and living according to its demands, even at the cost of our own lives.

The Gospel & Discipleship
When we truly understand and embrace the Gospel of Christ, we are overwhelmed with gratitude that will pour out of our life into the lives of others. The by-product of a heart filled with the Gospel is discipleship. Sharing Christ with others, encouraging others to grow in their faith, inspiring others to know Jesus. We embrace the discipline, pain, suffering, and agony of the Cross and die to self that Christ may live. Discipleship is not about us “making anything” but about us “becoming” Christ-like and being a conduit for God’s glory, mercy, love, and power expressed into the lives of the broken hearted.

Community and the 'S' Word
Will we be a church that takes grace seriously, where everyone, no matter your past and no matter your brokenness, is welcome to come and see? Or will we be a church that takes sin seriously, that takes the holiness of God seriously? The sad thing is that we often do better at one than the other. In this message we will look at what it means to be a community that takes both grace and sin seriously.

Jesus-Centered: Discipleship
Neighborhood Church is a Jesus-centered missional community in the heart of the city. The first part of this statement that we are going to focus on is "Jesus-centered." The question we ask in this teaching is, "What does it mean to be a disciple?" Using Matthew 28:16-20 as our primary text, we will look at Jesus' invitation to become His followers. ** The questions for this week's Community Group can be found on the blog.
