More Disciples is the commitment to evangelism. Jesus said, “Go ye into all the world, and preach the gospel to every creature” in Mark 16:15. We are committed to obeying this command here in our community, state, nation and the world. It is our desire to spread the gospel of Jesus to all who will hear.
Better Disciples speaks to personal growth. We are committed to grow in our understanding of God through His Word. This is accomplished through individual study, preaching, teaching, person to person discipleship, institute classes and ministry training.
2 Timothy 2:2 And the things that thou hast heard of me among many witnesses, the same commit thou to faithful men, who shall be able to teach others also.
2 Timothy 2:15 Study to shew thyself approved unto God, a workman that needeth not to be ashamed, rightly dividing the word of truth.
Everything we do here at First Baptist Church Orangefield should be run through these two filters.
(1) Reach the lost
(2) Grow people up in the way of the Lord
