On Turning Belief into Life

My involvement with Discipleship by Design (DbD) started someone called me and invited me to join a group. I wasn’t quite sure what I was getting into, but decided to give it a try. What got was a rich experience of studying the Bible and talking about how we could apply what we learned to our lives. Some of the situations women in the group brought up were difficult, others had no clear answer. We all gained greatly from sharing our lives and how our faith in Christ helps us in every situation.

So I’m excited to be beginning a new year of Discipleship by Design. This year we are adding a new feature: the Turning Faith into Life blog. Each week Ned Durham, the Men’s Leader and I will blog on what we learned from the topic of the week and how that knowledge will make a difference in our lives. Group facilitators and DbD participants are invited to add their comments.

Not a DbD participant? Feel free to follow the blog. You’ll get a taste of what we are doing. If you decide you want to join a group, registration is easy and we form groups in September and January.

Thank you for sharing this journey with us. What each of us will learn specifically is impossible to predict; what we do know is that we all will learn how very practical our faith is and how that faith can transform our lives, giving us the victory through our Lord Jesus Christ.

  1. Hi Evelyn, great first post. I might recommend that you have the link to registration open in a new window so the reader has both the blog and the DbD website open in their browser.
