Week 1: Be a Disciple and Make Disciples | 12 Week Discipleship Course | Ps Ankia van der Merwe

Week 1 of the 12 Week Discipleship Course with Ps Ankia van der Merwe, recorded live on Zoom on 15 September 2026. Jesus' last words to His disciples were "go and make disciples" (Matthew 28:19-20). Discipleship starts with salvation, so this first session looks at why we need salvation, how we are saved by grace through faith, and what salvation means for each of us personally: born again, a new creation, reconciled through the blood of Jesus, justified, and being transformed. Homework this week: write down what salvation means to you in every area of your life, and write down 7 names of people you can pray for and share your testimony with.
