Starting Points is a good place to start in participating in a small group. It is designed in an easy to follow format that creates good discussion, strong Christian friendships, and spiritual growth.

The purpose of this study is to understand what it truly means to be a disciple of Jesus. We will study nine marks of characteristics of a disciple of Jesus. This study is also an introduction into the process of discipleship and will help establish you in the basics of the Christian walk.

The goal of every follower of Jesus should be to grow to spiritual maturity. We should have a desire to grow closer to God and become more like Jesus Christ. The purpose of this study is to help you grow deeper and stronger as a disciple of Jesus. Each lesson will help you grow in your personal relationship with Jesus and challenge you to become the spiritual leader that God has called you to be."

Now that you are on your way to growing towards spiritual maturity, your next step in the discipleship process is to disciple others. You are now ready to take the things that you have learned in discipleship and teach them to others. You are to multiply the discipleship process and pour your life into spiritually younger disciples who will in turn, repeat the process.
