Discipleship

The Discipleship Ministry is committed to educating and equipping God’s people at Fifth Street Baptist Church to reach the lost, those who have not yet accepted Jesus Christ as their Lord and Savior. Discipleship is the process of helping people become more like Christ in their thoughts, feelings, and actions.  This process begins when a person is born again and continues throughout the rest of his/her life. “Do not let this Book of the Law depart from our mouth; meditate on it day and night, so that you may be careful to do everything written in it.  Then you will be prosperous and successful.” Joshua 1:8  “…to prepare God’s people for works of service, so that the body of Christ may be built up until we all reach unity in the faith and in the knowledge of the Son of God and become mature, attaining to the whole measure of the fullness of Christ.”  Ephesians 4:12b-13
