Following Jesus
Your decision to follow Jesus is the best decision you’ll ever make! Your sins are forgiven (1 John 1:9; 1 Corinthians 6:11; Romans 10:9-10) and you can begin to experience His best for your life (John 10:10)!
As you move forward in your faith journey, we recommend taking the following steps in your daily life:
Study God's Word
We recommend downloading the free Bible app in the App Store. Once you've downloaded it, select 'plans' on the bottom of the screen and search "New Believer" and select the "First Steps for New Believers" study. This study will lead you in an 7-day journey designed to help you understand the decision you just made!
We also recommend buying a physical copy of a Bible. Here are a couple Amazon links of Bibles we recommend:
Reading the Bible helps us understand God, ourselves, and the life we are called to live.
Pray
Prayer is simply talking to God. In prayer we thank God for who He is and what He has done for us, gain perspective, make our requests known, confess our sins, and ask for help and guidance (Matthew 6:9-13). A meaningful relationship is built on communication. Our relationship with God is no different. Prayer strengthens our relationship with God.
Get in Community with Other Believers
We encourage you to get involved in a local church that will encourage and equip you to follow Jesus (Hebrews 10:25)! One of the most important steps we can take in our faith journey is to be in community with other believers within the context of the local church!
