Discipleship
A disciple is not above his teacher, but everyone who is perfectly trained will be like his teacher.
Luke 6:40NKJV
So, a disciple is to be a duplicate of Jesus Christ. This process is alife-long one that begins with a saving realationship with Jesus through faith by grace. At IBC, we believe that every Christian is called to be a disciple of Jesus Christ. We are all in a life-long process of being made into His Image. We have set out the following to assist you in this journey.
