Premise

God created the universe from the overflow of His love—not from need, but to form beings capable of receiving and returning His love.

We were made in His image for relationship. Sin broke that love through mistrust, but God pursued us through Christ. Now, through redemption, we are being restored to our purpose: to walk with God in truth, love, and transformation.

Purpose

DiscipleLife exists to help believers understand the true nature of reality—so they can think clearly, live faithfully, and walk daily in love and truth.
Through a structured journey rooted in Scripture, we guide disciples to renew their minds, test what they believe, and be transformed by God’s love—not by striving, but through restored relationship.

Prelude

What This Project Is—and Is Not

Let’s be clear: this is not a typical Bible study. No fill-in-the-blanks. No shallow devotionals. No pre-packaged conclusions.

This is a guided expedition—through Scripture, led by the Spirit, grounded in reasoned faith.

You’ll be shown what God says, and invited to wrestle with what it means. You’ll be challenged to examine what you’ve inherited, assumed, or ignored.

This isn’t about Bible trivia.It’s about transformation.

How It’s Structured

DiscipleLife unfolds in chapters, each centered on a key theme of discipleship. Each chapter includes 4 or more essays, building step by step.

Every essay starts with a guiding question, explores a biblical response, and ends with a new question that leads to the next.

Field Notes for deeper and personal reflection

This isn’t content to consume. It’s a journey into truth and love.

What You’ll Need

You don’t need a theology degree. But you will need something harder: humility.

Bring:

• A readable Bible (we use the ESV)
• A mind willing to think—even when it stretches you
• A heart willing to be reshaped—especially when it costs you
• And time. This isn’t meant to be binged.

Study. Pause. Reflect. Pray. Walk. Repeat.

If You’re Starting Over

Maybe you’ve wandered. Maybe you’ve failed.

Maybe you’ve never truly started—just hovered near church or belief without surrender. If that’s you: you’re in the right place.

You’re not behind. You’re not disqualified. You’re exactly where the first step begins. And the first step isn’t perfection. It’s surrender.

The Goal: Love That Looks Like Jesus

The destination isn’t knowledge, certainty, or self-mastery. It’s love.

Not vague emotion—but agapē: the kind of love that lays itself down, rejoices in truth, forgives enemies, and follows Christ with full allegiance.

You can’t fake that kind of love. And you can’t produce it on your own.

It is the work of God in you—through His Word, by His Spirit, over time.
