… a foundational discipleship course developed by OK New Forest.

Jesus said “The thief's purpose is to steal and kill and destroy. My purpose is to give life in all its fullness.” (John 10:10 NLT)

Part of the mission of OK New Forest is to see “ordinary people equipped, enabled and released to live extraordinary lives”. We believe that it is God’s plan for YOU to lead an extraordinary life – not an easy life, but a life filled with purpose, joy, satisfaction and fulfillment. We believe that God has already provided, through Jesus, everything you need to make this “great life” a reality in your everyday experience.

But Satan’s purpose is equally clear. He will do his utmost to rob you of the good life that Jesus has given you. He wants to spoil and destroy your life. This course will help you to deny him that pleasure and to discover the great life that God intends you to be enjoying!

How do we discover this great life? Well it certainly doesn’t happen automatically! There’s a process (or journey) involved – which the Bible refers to as discipleship. The word disciple simply means a “learner”, and this learning process continues throughout our life as a Christian. Where ever you are on the journey there will be something on this course for you.

This course is designed to help you on this journey. It is not a “quick fix” – it is made up of 7 sections - each comprising 6 - 8 modules. The whole course will comprise 50 modules – almost one for each week of the year - although there is no rush to finish the course in a year!

The course was developed over the period from April 2004 to November 2006 and will be repeated from time to time.
