Grace News - Issue #2 2014 - Focuses on Discipleship

Grace News cover

As most of us will be aware, in 2013 God revealed to Grace Baptist Church a new vision to be “a disciple-making church that transforms lives with the gospel and love of Jesus Christ”. Have you caught this vision yet? In this issue of Grace News we examine more closely what it means to ‘make disciples’, which is at the heart of our church vision. What is a disciple, and how can we be one, and how can we make disciples of others? What are we doing as a corporate body and individually to live out this vision in practical ways in our everyday lives?

On page 1, Pastor Arnold shares some exciting plans for discipleship training at GBC in the years to come: you heard it here first! Then on pages 2 and 3 we hear from four church members who are involved in disciplemaking, being discipled, or both (because very often the two are inseparable), while on page 4 we ask The Miauw Suang about her extensive experience of disciple-making and what motivates her to reach out to others. To round off, don’t miss Pastor Oliver’s review on page 8 of a recommended book on discipleship: Cruciform: Living the Cross-Shaped Life. On page 5 Neo Yi Ling goes behind-the-scenes
to expose the secret life of our sound technicians and projectionists. Finally, on page 7 we have some updates (and a lovely photo!) from our missionaries Tzi Ping and Heidi in Indonesia.

Are you ready to catch the vision?

Blessings,
