Adult Discipleship
The Great Commission tells us to go forth and make disciples. One of the most essential ingredients in making disciples is Christian education.

OBCC Adult Discipleship Ministry purposes to assist people to grow in their devotional life, relationship with God and others, personal evangelism, attitude of humility and service, and in ministry (D.R.E.A.M.). We are passionate about seeing people’s lives transformed through the power of God’s Word so that they might think and live like Jesus.

“So then, just as you received Christ Jesus as Lord, continue to live in him, rooted and built up in him, strengthened in the faith as you were taught, overflowing with thankfulness. See to it that no one takes you captive through hollow and deceptive philosophy, which depends on human tradition and the basic principles of this world rather than on Christ.” Col. 2:7-8 NIV

More than teaching, discipleship is training that prepares, equips, and enables people to live their lives as God has intended, that is, to serve others and enlarge the kingdom of God.

2 Timothy 2:15 says: “Present yourself to God as one approved, a workman who does not need to be ashamed and who correctly handles the Word of Truth.”

It is important that we know how to “handle” the Word of Truth. It is a life long learning process. The desire to know the heart of God for your life is what will give you strength when times are hard and it is what will give you peace in the midst of a confused world.

At Open Bible Christian Center, we put a high premium on discipleship. We begin by partnering with parents in training their young children and we continue to help them to grow through teenage, adult and senior years. We believe you can never come to a place where you “know enough” about the Word of God.
