Discipleship Pathway
Level 5: Serve and Share — Purpose and Evangelism
Discover how to serve others, share your faith, use your gifts, and live as a witness for Christ in everyday life.
Living with Purpose and Sharing Christ
After building a foundation of faith, developing spiritual habits, renewing the mind, and growing in obedience and Christlike character, Level 5 helps believers take the next step: serving others and sharing Christ.
Spiritual growth is not meant to stop with us. God strengthens, teaches, heals, and transforms His people so that they can become a blessing to others. Every believer has a purpose, a testimony, gifts to use, people to love, and opportunities to represent Christ.
This level will help you discover your God-given purpose, serve with humility and compassion, use your spiritual gifts faithfully, share your faith with grace, and live as a witness for Christ wherever God has placed you.
“But you shall receive power when the Holy Spirit has come upon you; and you shall be witnesses to Me.”
Acts 1:8, NKJV
