Adult Discipleship
Welcome to Life In Christ! John 15:5 states, "I am the vine; you are the branches. Whoever abides in me and I in him, he it is that bears much fruit, for apart from me you can do nothing."
Adult Discipleship at Kingsland is built on a relationship with Jesus Christ. Life in Christ is Milestone 7 in our Legacy Milestone's Strategy. We name seven core competencies of Life in Christ taken from Scripture, which provide a framework for adult discipleship at Kingsland. The Core Competencies are:
- Prayer
- Scripture
- Authentic Faith
- Obedient Follower
- Disciple Maker
- Giving & Serving
- Community
These seven themes throughout a person's Life in Christ are never mastered or completed. Instead, every believer continues to draw closer to Christ through a meaningful relationship and then loves and serves others.
Step 1: Adult Bible Fellowships (ABF)
ABFs are small to medium size groups whose purpose is to teach Relevant Biblical Truth and connect believers with Authentic Community. Most of our ABFs meet on campus Sunday mornings at 9:30 and 11:00. We have a few that meet off-campus in homes during the week. Most ABFs are organized by life stage but you are welcome anywhere.
Step 2: Foundations, Men's & Women's Ministry
Foundations, Men's and Women's ministries are designed to meet specific needs in life both in Bible Study and times to get together. These range from retreats to studies on finances, and everything in between.
Step 3: Core Groups and Small Groups
Core Groups are much more organic in structure. These are accountability and intentional discipleship groups that often arise from ABFs or natural friendships. Kingsland desires to resource and support these small groups where men and women can do life with one another at the smallest level.
