Discipleship

Learning to Live Like Jesus

“Follow Me…” – Jesus (Matthew 4:19)

Why Discipleship Matters

Jesus didn’t simply call us to believe. He called us to follow. He didn’t ask for fans—He asked for followers. He didn’t commission the crowd—He entrusted the few. And those few turned the world upside down.

At Teaching with Truth, we believe that discipleship isn’t a side option in the Christian life—it is the Christian life. It’s not about checking boxes or attending services. It’s about transformation. It’s about laying down our lives, picking up our cross daily, and imitating Christ in both our convictions and our conduct.

Discipleship is not a trendy word we throw around—it’s the heartbeat of everything we do. It means diving deep into the Word, not skimming the surface. It means being challenged, corrected, and encouraged in real relationships with other believers. It means spiritual growth that actually produces fruit.

We exist to guide and walk alongside those who are ready to grow—those who are tired of shallow faith and are ready to be rooted in truth. Whether through digital teachings, one-on-one mentorship, book studies, or local gatherings, we are committed to helping you not just believe, but become.

Because when the Church stops making disciples, it stops obeying Jesus. But when it does—when it really does—we see lives changed, families restored, and communities renewed.

Our mission is simple, and it's the one Jesus gave us:
Make disciples. And teach them to do the same.

The Fundamentals

Living in Faith. Walking in Truth. Becoming Like Christ.

Being a Christian is not about checking a religious box, attending church once a week, or simply believing that God exists. It’s a complete transformation—a turning away from self and sin, and a turning toward Jesus as Savior, Lord, and the center of your life.

Christianity isn’t a religion of rules. It’s a relationship of love, trust, and surrender. At its heart, it’s about becoming a disciple—a student and follower of Jesus—learning to live, love, and lead like He did.

Below are the foundational truths and practices that define what it means to truly live as a Christian.

Faith in Jesus Christ Alone

Christianity begins with a personal decision to place your full trust in Jesus Christ—believing that He is the Son of God, that He died for your sins, and that He rose from the dead. Salvation is not earned by good works or moral behavior—it is a gift received by faith.

"For it is by grace you have been saved, through faith—and this is not from yourselves, it is the gift of God—not by works, so that no one can boast."
— Ephesians 2:8–9

This faith isn’t passive; it leads to repentance (a turning away from sin) and a transformed life rooted in God’s grace.

A New Identity in Christ

When you become a Christian, you don’t just adopt new beliefs—you become a new person. Your identity is no longer defined by your past, your failures, or your status in the world. You are now a child of God, forgiven, redeemed, and called with purpose.

"Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation. The old has passed away; behold, the new has come."
— 2 Corinthians 5:17

Understanding your new identity is critical. You no longer live for yourself—you live for Him.

Living by the Word of God

The Bible is not just a sacred book; it is the living Word of God and the foundation of our lives. It teaches us who God is, how He calls us to live, and how to grow in wisdom, holiness, and truth.

"All Scripture is God-breathed and is useful for teaching, rebuking, correcting and training in righteousness..."
— 2 Timothy 3:16

Christians must be students of the Word—daily reading it, meditating on it, and obeying it. A disciple doesn’t just know Scripture—they live it.

Prayer and Relationship with God

Christianity is deeply relational. God doesn’t want religion—He wants your heart. Prayer is how we communicate with Him: to praise, to confess, to ask, and to listen. It’s not about fancy words—it’s about real, honest connection.

"Draw near to God, and He will draw near to you."
— James 4:8

A thriving Christian life includes a rhythm of prayer—both in solitude and in community.

Obedience and Holiness

Faith without obedience is incomplete. True belief in Jesus always leads to a life that strives for holiness—not perfection, but transformation. We obey not to earn God’s love, but because we already have it.

"If you love me, you will keep my commandments."
— John 14:15

Obedience is how we show our love for Christ. Holiness is how we reflect His character in the world.
