WE EXIST TO MAKE DISCIPLES OF JESUS FOR THE GLORY OF GOD AND THE JOY OF ALL PEOPLE.

 

Who is a Disciple?

A disciple is someone who has been made alive by God through new birth by trust in the gospel and is subsequently growing to love God and others through worship, community, and mission.


Why Gospel-Centered?

We understand the gospel to be the climax of the entire Bible, the hinge point of God's redemptive plan, and the clearest display of Who He is and what He has done. Jesus is the one and only way, truth, and life, the only source of salvation, the only access to God. Though Christians may differ elsewhere, here they must find their center.  


What Does a Disciple Look Like?

GOSPEL-CENTERED WORSHIP

"I appeal to you therefore, brothers, by the mercies of God, to present your bodies as a living sacrifice, holy and acceptable to God, which is your spiritual worship." - Romans 12:1

At Bayless, some of the ways we join in gospel-centered worship is through:

  • A growing knowledge of God and his Word
  • A growing affection for Jesus
  • A growing obedience empowered by the Holy Spirit
  • Kingdom-minded prayer
  • Sacrificial giving to Bayless Baptist Church
GOSPEL-CENTERED COMMUNITY

“And because of him you are in Christ Jesus, who became to us wisdom from God, righteousness and sanctification and redemption.” - 1 Corinthians 1:30

At Bayless, some of the ways we join in gospel-centered community is through:

  • Bible Studies that encourage new friendships
  • Discipleship Groups where we  “walk in the light” together
  • Gift-oriented ministry for every member
  • Empowered leaders
GOSPEL-CENTERED MISSION

“But you will receive power when the Holy Spirit is come upon you and you will be my witnesses in Jerusalem and in all Judea and Samaria, and to the end of the earth.” - Acts 1:8

At Bayless, some of the ways we join in gospel-centered mission is through:

  • Comfort sufferers in their affliction
  • Multiply churches in our city
