Welcome to following Jesus! Welcome to the family! God’s family!
In this series we want to help you grow in knowing what it means, and what it looks like, to follow Jesus.
This material is designed to help you find out more about what God says it looks like to follow Him. It asks you to read, watch and respond to truths from the Bible wherever you are in your relationship with God.
This series, just like life, is designed to be done with others. We would encourage you to be meeting up regularly with a more mature follower of Jesus to journey through this series.
So, what do you need to start?
A heart to be discipled, to learn from God!
A Bible!
Someone to meet with!
The series booklets!
We pray that you grow to follow Jesus more closely and have your life shaped by the one you follow. Jesus!

We all have a story. Our unique stories show not only who we are, but where we are from, and what has shaped us.
God is writing a story. History is HIS-STORY, God’s story. God’s story is written down in the Bible. It’s called the gospel.
In this session we are going to take the time to learn more about God’s story, and where our story fits within it.

Psalm 119:105
