Discipleship Ministry

And let us consider one another in order to stir up love and good works.
Hebrews 10:24

To be equipped to minister to all those who desire to know more about
what it means to be a disciple of Jesus Christ.

What is the Discipleship Minstry at Calvary Chapel Upland all about?
The Discipleship Ministry is designed to have men and women who feel called by God to come alongside and minister one on one to those who are eager to learn and apply the truths that Jesus Christ teaches us through His word that will result in a deeper commitment to a life pleasing to our Lord.

. . .we count how many souls have been saved and sanctified, we thank God, and then we think everything is all right. Yet our work only begins where God’s grace has laid the foundation. Our work is not to save souls, but to disciple them. Salvation and sanctification are the work of God’s sovereign grace, and our work as His disciples is to disciple others’ lives until they are totally yielded to God. One life totally devoted to God is of more value to Him than one hundred lives which have been simply awakened by His Spirit. As workers for God, we must reproduce our own kind spiritually, and those lives will be God’s testimony to us as His workers. God brings us up to a standard of life through His grace, and we are responsible for reproducing that same standard in others.
Whenever our Lord talked about discipleship, He always prefaced His words with an “if,” never with the forceful or dogmatic statement—“You must.” Discipleship carries with it an option.
