Jade is trying to teach the group a new dance. She will have further opportunities to teach other disciples to dance before the Lord when she leads a group of 14 people from Mount Pleasant Baptist church, Barry all of whom have signed up to take part in the Masterlife Discipleship training course in September.

Some people have already asked to be included in a Masterlife group this Autumn. If you are interested in joining the group which will run between September and Easter 2011 then have a chat with Ruth or Steve who will be happy to talk about the course with you.

TESTIMONIES FROM THOSE WHO HAVE COMPLETED THE COURSE.

"The course helped me through a natural progression in my faith. I felt that as new situations and questions came up, Masterlife was able to answer them. It was as if the course was written for me and acted like a personal coach, confirming and affirming my thoughts and feelings"

"It has made me appreciate what faith actually is and how this is cemented through being a part of the church. My expectations of what God wants for me and what I can actually give have changed along with my desire to be part of, and to see, His Kingdom realised on earth".

"Masterlife has helped me to know the importance of spending time each day with God. We have covered a lot of different subjects, which has helped me understand and live out what it is to be a disciple. It has helped me to get to know the people in my group too. I feel like I know God better by looking at how I am as a Christian and what a disciple should be like. It has really helped me be disciplined as a disciple".

"Masterlife has really helped me to grow closer to God and have more of a relationship with him through reading my Bible, praying and discovering where he is calling me at the moment. I have really enjoyed having fellowship in my group which has helped me be more confident and open with people. Masterlife has given me the base tools that I know I will keep growing in and has encouraged me to witness more to the people around me. Even though I still struggle with different things I am more aware of them now and can work on them in God's strength. Masterlife has grown me, made me more disciplined and prepared for my future ministries".
