Walking In The Promise
Incarnational Discipleship
How Do People Actually Become Disciples?
To encounter God’s Promise is to have encountered God’s Character. Enabling that encounter to be transformative is our next challenge. Walking In The Promise calls for a shift, to do something we haven’t done this year: slow down. Since Easter, everything has been moving outward. Pentecost, Miracles. Growth. Expansion. It’s been confirmation of that central idea:
God keeps His Word.
Discipleship flows from people who have learned to live faithfully in the ordinary rhythms of presence, hospitality, testimony, patience, availability, and rootedness. This progression is not satisfying—it emphasizes that God’s grace forms holy people whose everyday lives become the means by which God’s promises continue to bless the world. The Promise is not merely something God said; it is the reality God’s people now inhabit. This is what incarnational discipleship is all about.
Something Is Happening
Taking Shape
If you pay attention, you can’t miss what God is doing with our youth! Witness as our youth are learning to recognize the manner in which God is shaping us all through the lessons of life, refining and strengthening their faith and character.
As Christians, our youth represent the raw, imperfect material that is being refined and reshaped. Whether the image is that of The Potter and the Clay, Running a Race and pressing on toward the goal like that in Philippians 3:12-14 or being rehaped into a New Image (Ephesians 4:22-24), the goal is not to destroy the person but to forge them into something useful, durable, and beautiful.
To humbly submit to God’s refining work rather than resist it is what it means to Be Shaped On The ANVIL.

Bible Study
The Gospel According to Luke
The Gospel Of Luke
Encounter the heartbeat of Jesus, who seeks and saves the lost.
Luke’s interest in people is undeniable. Much of what we encounter in Luke’s gospel involves Jesus’s interactions with individuals: the best and the worst; saints and sinners; women and children. Like Matthew and Mark, Luke recorded the incident of a woman coming to pour perfume on Jesus’s feet. But Luke was the only gospel writer to point out the fact known to all present what type of woman was touching Jesus (Luke 7:37-39). Understanding Jesus through Luke’s Gospel reveals our Christ as The One to minister and show compassion to all people, no matter who they were or where they were from.
