Brazos Pointe exists to guide people to DISCOVER, DEVELOP and DEPLOY faith in Jesus. It’s a journey!
And, like a map, this Next Step Guide is designed to help you on that journey. It helps you determine where you are, where you are going, and how to get there.

As you discover who Jesus is and what He has done for you, you may choose to become a follower of Jesus and begin a relationship with Him, making you a new disciple. At this point on the path, we guide you into next steps as you continue to discover and navigate this new relationship with Jesus.

Here are some options for what to do next:

Jesus meets you where you are and invites you into a relationship, but He challenges you not to stay there. Development occurs when you both learn the way of Jesus AND live it out in your everyday life. As you develop faith in Jesus, you become a growing disciple.

At this point on the path, you guide you, owning your faith development and the responsibility to take next steps as a follower of Jesus. A great next step in this phase is to start with Rooted, our core develop experience.

As we develop our faith in Jesus, it’s helpful to have some markers of a growing disciple. That’s why we developed GuideMarks. They help us measure growth in our lives as we continually take next steps with Jesus.

As you continue your journey, you become a disciple-making disciple—you deploy your faith in Jesus. At this point on the path, you guide others into their next steps as you continue to share what you have discovered and how you have developed. Whether you are guiding others to discover faith in Jesus or develop their faith in Jesus, you are living out Jesus’s directive to make disciples.
