At FPC Moorestown, we strive to be a congregation of disciples who make disciples.

The message we preach determines the disciple we’ll make. For sixteen Sundays, we’ll closely examine the “discipleship gospel”, what Jesus preached and what we must do using the Gospel of Mark.

Our sermon series is

Live-able: The Discipleship Gospel.

As Eugene Peterson wrote, “Everything in [Mark] is live-able.”

 

Seven Essential Elements of the Gospel

1. God’s Kingdom is here.
2. Jesus is the Christ.
3. Jesus died for our sins.
4. Jesus was resurrected.
5. We repent of sin.
6. We believe the Gospel.
7. We follow Jesus.
“You are going to hear stories that will take you out of your preoccupation with yourself and into the spacious freedom in which God is working the world’s salvation. You are going to come across words and sentences that stab you awake to a beauty and hope that will connect you with your real life. Be sure to answer.” (The Message, p. 11)
