Becoming More Like Christ

The mission of Jesus is about making disciples who will then make disciples who will make disciples... This is the story of Jesus' call to His first disciples was the call to follow. This is the essence of discipleship, to follow Jesus. Yet, Jesus also tells them that following means fishing. In other words, to be a follower of Jesus is synonymous with being a fisher of men and women. From the first call there is a connection between the pursuit of Christ and joining in His mission. From day one, this has been central to our identity as a church, the desire to be a church making disciples as we are on mission in our city and in the larger world. God is a sending God and to follow Christ means we are people sent to Eureka and beyond, and any understanding of discipleship without connection to mission is incomplete.
