What is a disciple?
The Bible defines disciples as people who:
      -are willing to submit to and follow Christ's teaching and guidance (John 8:31 &14:23)
      -make following and living like Christ their first priority (Luke 9:23)
      -are committed to spreading the message of the Gospel around the world (Matthew 28:18-20) 
       -love others as Christ loves them (John 13:34-35)

What are the promises of becoming a disciple?
In the Gospel of John 15:1-17, 26-27, Jesus promises that those who are His disciples will:
    -bear fruit (verses 5,8,16)
    -have prayers answered (verse 7,16)
    -remain in His love (verse 10)
    -have Joy (verse 11)
    -love others (verses 12,17)
    -be His friend (verse 14)
    -be given the Holy Spirit (verse 26)
    -testify about Him (verse 27)

How do we work to accomplish this at Valleybrook?
    -We commit to learn the Word of God individually and together
         (through the Like Jesus Discipleship Study, Bible Studies, Sunday school, Youth group & VBS programs, small group study, & hearing the Word    
          proclaimed through Biblical preaching)

    -We will strive to learn and imitate Jesus' life and ministry
        (provide ministry, outreach, and service opportunities in our local community)
    -We strive to hold each other accountable
    -We strive to seek out and teach others to be disciples of Jesus Christ
