At New Covenant, we strive for our church family to be always in community and always equipping. We believe that as Christ-followers, we must continually equip ourselves well to Pursue + Practice. Our core Discipleship Classes echo the three phases of our mission statement: Pursue God, Pursue Others with His Love, and Practice His Ways.

DISCIPLESHIP CLASSES

Class sizes are kept small to facilitate a sense of community within the group. We recommend everyone at New Covenant complete these three courses to benefit their spiritual walk. We think it's best to begin with the Pursuing God class before continuing to the Pursuing Others class, as well as the Practicing His Ways class. If you have questions, contact Andrew Boone.

PURSUING GOD CLASS

The Pursuing God Discipleship Class brings opportunities to equip ourselves well to Pursue + Practice, something that all Christ-followers are called to do. The class aims to help you cultivate a personal devotional life that includes Bible study, prayer, and spiritual disciplines. For anyone new to pursuing God through those means, the class will guide you in developing essential skills for your daily walk with God. It also builds on the fundamentals and offers time-tested ways to keep the pursuit of God vibrant and fresh.

PURSUING OTHERS CLASS

In the Pursuing Others class, participants will be equipped with skills for evangelism and discipleship:

Evangelism - those taking the class will learn and practice how to use their testimony to share the gospel. They will also develop some basic skills in Christian apologetics.
Discipleship - the class provides the opportunity to develop the skills needed to help other believers grow in their faith. Throughout the class, participants will engage in rich practice outside of class time and then debrief and discuss how it went with the teachers during class time.

Please complete the Pursuing God class before taking the Pursuing Others class.
