“You have heard me teach things that have been confirmed by many reliable witnesses. Now teach these truths to other trustworthy people who will be able to pass them on to others” (2 Timothy 2:2 NLT).
What does discipleship really mean? A great insight into this question can be found in Mark 3:14 where we read Jesus, “appointed twelve (disciples) that they might be with him and that he might send them out . . .” (NIV). For three years Jesus modeled a brand of discipleship that could never be imitated in a short course or Sunday school class. It was up close and personal. It was Life-to-Life®.
The goal of our conference is to foster growth and refreshment for all of us as disciples of Jesus, each in our individual seasons and contexts. We’re going to dig into the scriptures together and explore God’s plan for disciplemaking both in our main sessions, and in some great elective seminars you’ll get to choose from. We’d also love to minister to your kids (10 and under) and provide opportunities for you to further connect with The Navigators and peers from around our city!
