What does it mean to follow Jesus?

Jesus has made life with God possible.  We receive the gift of this life when we believe in him. Belief in Jesus is more than affirming certain truths about him or trying hard to be like him, it is reorienting your entire life around him. At Apostles we summarize this way of life as learning to:

  1. Be with Jesus

  2. Become like Jesus

  3. Do what Jesus did.

This simple yet life-changing way of Jesus takes a life-time of commitment and learning. It requires grace, humility and courage. It is the Holy Spirit who works to transform us into the likeness of Jesus and empowers us to participate in his redemptive work in the world. Over time, we learn to live our lives as Jesus would if he were us. We are committed to prayer and the study of God’s Word. We draw on our rich Anglican tradition for spiritual practices, sacramental and liturgical worship, and walking in the Holy Spirit who helps us become the people God created us to be for the sake of the world and to the glory of God!

Wherever you are on your spiritual journey, we invite you to consider the Lord Jesus Christ and the life he alone offers. Life to the full!
