Where disciples are FORGED. Equipped. and Deployed.

Every disciple, within the body of Christ, must have the right perception of who God is through the wisdom of God, presented by the word of God. Having a biblical worldview presents the right perspective within discipleship and increases the spread of the gospel. There are five components that make up a biblical worldview: creation, the fall of man, redemption, consummation, and a new creation. 

We believe in making a difference in our local community. Healing Word Ministries organizes outreach programs to assist those in need and spread kindness throughout Granbury. From food drives to clothing donations, we strive to serve others and reflect the love of Christ in action. Get involved and help us reach out to those who could use a helping hand.

 Ministry is the total submission to God’s purpose, where every believer is called to spread the gospel and make disciples in all areas of life. Each person is uniquely equipped by God to serve with love, using their gifts to reflect Christ’s transformative power and engage in service for His glory. Effective ministry strengthens both the believer's faith and the world around them, advancing God’s purpose and bringing hope and healing to those in need.

A disciple is committed to living in a way that is pleasing to God, engaging in a lifelong process of transformation through learning from Christ and spiritually mature believers, and then discipling others. Discipleship builds a Godly community, fostering relationships that nurture spiritual growth and help believers stay rooted in the Word of God, free from sin and deception. Through discipleship, believers mature in their faith, enduring trials with grace and bearing fruit as they obey and share the gospel with others.

This is a continual process of being made holy in heart, mind, and lifestyle. This is a daily process of pruning and purity to reflect a new creation. We must walk in repentance, die to self and submit our lives in obedience to the Scriptures in everything we do. The word "sanctification" literally means "to set apart for special use or purpose.”

Spiritual intimacy is a personal relationship with Jesus Christ that produces fruit, preserves the earth, and dispels darkness, as we draw near to Him and He draws near to us. This closeness leads to heart purification and a renewed mind, as we abide in Him and discover our identity in Christ. In this relationship, Jesus is the vine, and we, as His branches, find strength and purpose in Him, longing for His presence to fulfill our deepest thirst.

 Biblical literacy involves understanding and applying God's Word contextually in daily life, recognizing Scripture as divinely inspired for teaching, correction, and training in righteousness. It is essential for accurately discerning God's voice and being prepared to defend the hope within us. By deeply engaging with Scripture, Disciples of Christ align their lives with God's design, using the Bible as a moral compass and guide for decision-making.
