New Start Discipleship is a meaningful opportunity to grow deeper in your Christian life. Through guided journals and short online videos, it combines personal study with one-to-one mentoring to encourage accountability, spiritual growth, and a deeper walk with Christ.

We offer several journals, available in the church lobby. While there is a recommended progression, you are free to begin with any journal at any time. What makes New Start Discipleship unique is the emphasis on engaging with a spiritual mentor who walks alongside you and helps strengthen your journey. Below is a brief description of each journal. To begin, simply choose a journal and get started.

• Jesus Challenge.  The Jesus Challenge is a 21-day journey through the Gospel of John designed to help seekers and believers clearly understand who Jesus is. Each day guides you through Scripture and reflection to explore His words, works, and claims. This study is ideal for those new to the faith as well as believers wanting a fresh focus on Christ.
• Baptism Challenge.  The Baptism Challenge is a 21-day journey designed to prepare you for baptism or deepen your understanding of it. Each day includes a Bible passage, a short teaching video, a practical challenge, prayer time, and a discussion question. A mentor will walk with you through this study to help guide your understanding and next steps.
• 50 Days with Jesus.  This is the core discipleship journal and the best place to start. Each day includes a Bible reading that gives you an overview of Scripture, a reflection question, journaling space, and a short teaching video to guide you. You’re encouraged to walk through the 50 days with a mentor for encouragement and accountability—if you don’t have one, the pastor will gladly help you find one.
• Obedience Challenge.  The Obedience Challenge is a 90-day journey through the Gospels, focusing on 45 commands of Jesus and how to live them out. You’ll read through all four Gospels, journal daily, and watch a short video explaining Jesus’ command for the day. A mentor is required for this study, because spiritual growth is strongest when we walk alongside others.
• From Me to We.  This 40-day study focuses on the “one another” commands of Scripture and the importance of Christian community. You’ll learn how discipleship happens best in relationships through daily teaching, Scripture, reflection questions, and journaling. A mentor will encourage you throughout the process as you move from individual faith to shared life in Christ.
• Pursuing Holiness.  Pursuing Holiness is a 40-day journey focused on growing in Christlikeness in everyday life. Each day includes a video, prayer focus, Scripture or reflection question, and journaling time to help apply biblical truth. This study challenges believers to live set apart for God in thought, word, and action.
• The Gospel Challenge is a 62-day journey through the book of Romans that helps you understand how the Gospel transforms both individuals and the world. Each day includes a short teaching video, Scripture reading, reflection, and journaling to help you grasp the depth of salvation, grace, and new life in Christ. This study is designed to strengthen your faith and discipleship habits as you walk through one of the most important books of the Bible

In addition, we offer a 7-lesson New Convert Journal called Because I’m Saved. This study is designed for those who have recently trusted Jesus as Lord and Savior and provides a strong foundation for beginning their walk with Christ.
