Learn what it is to be a servant manager

At the heart of our ministry lies this mission statement: To glorify God by making disciples.  This isn't a mission we came up with but is a mission Jesus left us with in his teaching of the Great Commission.  If we are going to make disciples and fulfill our mission, we better be able to answer some simple questions about disciples and discipleship.  In this four week series, we tackle four basic questions, beginning with this one: What is a disciple?  Let's look at what Jesus teaches in John 3 about the need to be born again as foundational to what it means to be a disciple of him.
