Increasing the Knowledge of Discipleship Among Members of Southbrook Baptist Church in Wadena, Minnesota

This project sought to inform congregants at Southbrook Baptist Church in Wadena, Minnesota, in the components of discipleship through a sermon series in the Gospel of Mark. The believer learned how to align heart, soul, mind, and strength with the teachings and pattern of Jesus Christ. Chapter 1 presents the history and ministry context of Southbrook Baptist Church and the goals of this project. Chapter 2 provides exegesis of four passages of Scripture (Mark 1–2; John 14:15–24; Matt 10:24–25; 2 Tim 2:2) to demonstrate the components of discipleship. Chapter 3 demonstrates how to be a disciple through spiritual disciplines, obeying Christ’s teachings, and imitating Christ’s character. Chapter 4 presents the project itself, reporting on the content of the discipleship preaching series. Chapter 5 assesses the effectiveness of the project based on goal completion. Essentially, the aim of this project is to equip believers to connect all areas of their life to their relationship with Christ.
