About Us

Our Mission

We believe that Jesus’ words are not optional. They are essential.

Our mission is to fuel Christ-centered discipleship for individuals and families by providing resources and events that empower them to impact the globe for Christ. Our foundation is the Word of God and the firm belief that His Word is sufficient for every area of our lives.

As we guide people to this Word, we long to see believers not just living out their own abundant lives in Christ, but displaying and declaring that life to others.

Our Statement of Faith

Our faith is grounded in Christ and His Word.

The Home Discipleship Network affirms the cardinal doctrines of Scripture that have been defended by historic statements of faith. These include the divine inspiration of Scripture, the deity of Christ, the original sin nature of man, the atonement for sin by Christ’s shed blood, and justification by faith in Jesus as the Christ. This statement of faith does not exhaust the extent of our faith and doctrine. The Bible itself is the source of all that we believe. 

We believe in the one true God, existing in three Persons: Father, Son, and Holy Spirit. These three are coequal from all eternity, each with distinct personalities but of one essence.

We believe the Bible is the verbally inspired Word of God and is the sole, infallible rule of faith and practice.

We believe Jesus Christ is the eternal Son of God, that He entered into the world through the virgin birth, and lived among us without sin as perfect Man and perfect God.

We believe that the Genesis account of creation is neither allegory nor myth, but a literal, historical account of God’s creation of the universe.

We believe Adam was directly created in innocence and in the image of God and did not evolve from preexisting forms of life. By voluntary transgression, he fell; and as a result the whole human race is now sinful by nature and practice, and therefore under just condemnation to eternal separation from God.

We believe Jesus Christ shed His blood on the cross, taking the penalty of our sins and of all sinners upon Himself, was buried and rose again bodily, and ascended to the right hand of the Father, from where He will personally return.

We believe people are saved by grace through faith in the shed blood of the Lord Jesus Christ and without any additional human effort or works.

We believe the Holy Spirit convicts the sinner; and regenerates, sanctifies, indwells and fills the believer for effective service.

We believe in the resurrection of both the saved and the lost—the saved unto eternal life and the lost unto eternal condemnation.

We believe Satan is a living being and that hell and ultimately the lake of fire are places of eternal conscious punishment for him, his hosts, and all unbelievers.

We believe that all authority is from God and that He has ordained and created authority structures to exercise His delegated authority within the jurisdictional limits described in the Bible for the family, church, civil government, and vocational relationships.

We believe that God created people as either male or female and that no intimate sexual activity should be engaged in outside of a marriage between one born a man and one born a woman. We believe that any form of sexual expression that deviates from God’s design for mankind, as revealed in the Bible, is sinful and destructive. This is true whether the expression involves homosexuality, bisexuality, bestiality, transgenderism, incest, fornication, adultery, pornography, or other forms of sexual sins.

We believe that the only Scriptural marriage is the joining of one biological man and one biological woman for life.

We believe that men and women are spiritually equal in position and value before God as both are created in the image of God with distinctive, God-designed roles in the family and the church.

We believe that God has ordained the family as the foundational institution of human society. Husbands and wives are to love, care for, and submit to one another. Children are a heritage from the Lord. Parents are responsible for raising their children in the nurture and admonition of the Lord.

We believe that human life is sacred from conception to its natural end and any willful and deliberate early termination of innocent life is contrary to the will of God.

The Great Commission starts in our families.

Only a true disciple can make true disciples. We believe that the first step towards powerful, dynamic, globe-altering discipleship begins with you making the Word of God the bedrock of your life. This journey begins at home, with you choosing to abide in the Word in your own home.

As you learn and live out Jesus’ teachings in your heart and life through the power of the Holy Spirit, these teachings will fuel true discipleship ministry—from your dinner table, to your neighborhood, and unto the ends of the earth.

“And Jesus came and spake unto them, saying, All power is given unto me in heaven and in earth. Go ye therefore, and teach all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost: teaching them to observe all things whatsoever I have commanded you: and, lo, I am with you alway, even unto the end of the world. Amen.”

Matthew 28:18-20
