Discipleship is not an option, it is a command. Every Christian has the responsibility of passing on what they have learned to those who are younger in the faith. This week, Pastor Tony gives 4 practical things to consider when engaging someone in a discipleship relationship.

It is natural to be concerned with one’s self. There is a self-preservation that is inherent in all of us. By nature, we protect what we love and hold dear. This week, Pastor Tony breaks down what it means to live a selfless life and encourages us to live with less of our self in mind.

Believers in Jesus Christ forfeit the right to have private lives. Our new nature calls us to be people who can be 'passed through' by the Holy Spirit. This week, Pastor Tony encourages SomaChurch to open up our "spiritual pores" and soak up God's love so that we can pour it out upon others.

Everyone experiences "Spiritual Transformation" at a different pace. This week, Pastor Tony encourages the Saints at SomaChurch not to be discouraged by slow growth but to rest in knowing that 'He who began a good work in you will be faithful to complete it until the day of Christ Jesus'.

This week a dear friend from across the ocean encourages our body in several different areas. Enjoy!

The quality of spirituality within The Church today is low. We have exchanged God's Glory for that which does not profit. This week, Pastor Tony shares about how seeking higher plateaus in the things of the Spirit begins with "authenticating" our worship of the Lord.

Things of great value tend to capture our heart. At SomaChurch, we believe everyone is a minister. But is everyone ministering? Pastor Tony starts off 2011 by challenging us to re-define our "treasures" so that we can effectively live lives worthy of the calling and touch the lives of those around us.

This week, Pastor Tony encourages us to look ahead with hope and expectation that Jesus Christ will return again for a bride ready and waiting.

Life without Jesus Christ is empty. Without Him we are incomplete. We are dried up branches that are dead and unfruitful. Jesus is the True Vine. When we connect our lives to Him we are made whole. Our lives are complete and we become branches that are ALIVE and bearing much fruit.

Jesus Christ is the True Light that brings light to every every man. (John 1:9) Christmas is not about the day "a very important 'man' was born". It is about the day that the True Light came to bring us out of darkness. This week, Pastor Tony shares about how understanding the Divine Nature of Jesus Christ will inspire us to worship Him this holiday season.
