of hope

Step 1

The conditions of your life may have you feeling as if living is too hard and there is no hope. That's not true. Living in a place where there is no pain, sorrow, sickness, death, addictions, depression or loneliness is possible and you can live there forever. If you're interested in such a life, go to Step 2.

Step 2

It's here on your journey that you listen to awesome, amazing good news proclaimed boldly for you - the gospel.

Step 3

Now that you know the good news you've arrived at Step 3. Here you find out the details of being a Jesus follower by discovering more truths in the workbook, Christianity 101. You can do so on your own. We're available, though, to go through it with you.

Send us an email (seeker@restorechurchnetwork.com) requesting a partner and we'll happily get back with you to set it up. Access to the workbook is below.

Step 4

If you're wondering how Jesus can make your life better on earth Step 4 is definitely for you. As with Step 3, this is a step you can complete by yourself but we suggest you have a partner go through the Strongholds workbook with you.

Send us an email (seeker@restorechurchnetwork.com) to arrange a partner. You can access the Strongholds workbook below.

Step 5

You made it to the last Pathway of Hope step. Congratulations! This is where you make some decisions by asking yourself the following questions.

1. Do I want an eternal life provided by Jesus where there is no more pain, sorrow, sickness, addictions, loneliness, poverty and depression?

2. Do I believe that Jesus - by dying on a cross, being buried and rising from the dead - conquered death for me by paying the penalty for my sins and making a way back to the Father for me?

3. Do I want to live a life on earth that is directed by Jesus as opposed to one directed by the evil ways of this world?

4. Am I sorry for my sins against Jesus and do I turn away from a life of sin (repent) from this point in my life forward?

If you answered "yes" to Question 2 you have become a saved (from the consequences of sinning) Jesus follower (see Romans 10:9)! If you answered "yes" to questions 1, 3 and 4 that's an indication you really mean "yes" to Question 2.

Welcome to God's family (see Romans 8:14-17)!

Your Pathway of Hope is complete except for five bonus steps below.

bonus steps

Real Christians understand their path to Jesus doesn't end when a decision is made to follow Him and be saved. Instead, our salvations are the beginning of our lives being transformed (a process called sanctification) away from the evil ways of the world to the ways of Jesus so He can use us to accomplish the Father's will on earth (see Titus 2:14), including telling non-Jesus followers about how awesome and amazing Jesus is (see Matthew 28:18-20).

These bonus steps will help you understand all of this better. They are part of you beginning to know Jesus more in-depth. (It's called being discipled.) Doing the steps also show Jesus that your commitment to Him is real as you are being obedient to Him. Here are the bonus steps, which Restore Church Network can help you accomplish:

1. Get baptized - Baptism is our public profession of Jesus, telling the world that you are a Jesus follower.

2. Begin meeting with other Jesus followers (join a church) to praise and worship our God; to be in fellowship with Christians who care about you; to learn more about the Father, Son and Holy Spirit; to pray with each other; and to take Communion with other believers. (You'll learn more about all of this as you grow as a Christian.) Restore Church Network has digital (online) microchurches for people who live anywhere in the world; physical microchurches (purposely designed small churches so everyone in the church knows each other) in Indianapolis, USA and Birmingham, UK; and partner churches in Indianapolis, and Birmingham and London, UK and soon in Northeastern Brazil to whom you can be connected.

3. Have another believer disciple you so you grow as a Christian.

4. Make sure you have daily time with God in which you pray and read the Bible.

5. Get trained to share how Jesus has changed your life with people who don't know about Him. (Don't be concerned, it's easy to do.)
