Hi, my name's Courtney Doctor, and I serve as the Director of Women's Initiatives at the Gospel Coalition.

And as followers of Jesus Christ, you know we're all called to go and make disciples,

which sounds simple enough, help others follow Jesus as they grow in their love and knowledge of Him.

But that doesn't mean it's easy.

So we're inviting you to join us for the demystifying discipleship cohort. In this six-week virtual cohort, you'll hear

best practices from women like Jen Wilkin, Melissa Kruger, and Karen Hodge, women who have

thought long and hard about discipleship and implemented it

in a variety of settings. This cohort is for any woman who wants to disciple others, to be

discipleship, to be discipleship, or to see discipleship permeate her church culture.

Registration closes January 16th, so register today at TGC.org

Ezra would help us to see the priority that worshiping Jesus should have, and that that isn't something that just is a formal and ceremonial

reality, but the centrality of worshiping Jesus then shapes every part of our lives. It shapes the purity

of our worship that we would be a people who like Ezra know the word, want to have the word

taught in order that people may do it.
