In A Deeper Walk: A Proven Path to a More Vibrant Faith, Dr. Marcus Warner provides a model for whole-brained, heart-focused discipleship based on the gospel’s four essential elements: Freedom, Identity, Spirit, and Heart-Focused Community—FISH.

Elements of Heart-Focused Discipleship

FREEDOM

As a child of God, freedom is your birthright! However, freedom is not automatic. God has given us tools to win spiritual battles and find healing for wounded hearts.

IDENTITY

Every Christian has a shared identity based on Covenant (what Christ has done for us) and an individual identity based on Creation (who God has uniquely made us to be).

SPIRIT & SCRIPTURE

Walking in the Spirit will open up a whole new way of living in union with Christ. Learning to hear God’s voice and experience His presence with you in your daily life changes everything!

HEART-FOCUSED COMMUNITY

No one is called to go it alone. We are created for community that goes beyond the surface to sharing life from the heart using healthy relational skills to create belonging.

FISH leads to Mission

The gospel is meant to transform us and to propel us outward to the world.
FISH leads to Mission, and engaging in Mission will take us deeper in our own journey of transformation.

Other ways to join us on the trail

FREEDOM: Spiritual Warfare and Emotional Healing

It is impossible to live in this fallen world and not have your heart wounded. And if we are living with unhealed wounds then our maturity is stunted, our relationships suffer, and we are not able to fully live from the heart Jesus gave us.

The Freedom Course offers a biblically-balanced, practical guide to understanding how our hearts get wounded, and more importantly, how to see them made whole again.

IDENTITY: Covenant & Creation

The reality is that many of the struggles we face in life go back to the issue of identity. If we don’t understand who God says we truly are we’ll end up defining ourselves by any number of other things. That’s why we created this course.

The Identity Course offers a biblically balanced, practical guide to understanding your true identity in Christ and how to live out of who God created you to be more fully than ever!

SPIRIT & SCRIPTURE: God’s Word and Conversational Prayer

The Christian life is not meant to be lived by leaning on our own understanding. God has given us His powerful Word as a light for our path. And, walking in the Spirit will open up a whole new way of living in union with Christ. Learning to hear God’s voice and experience His presence with you in your daily life changes everything!

HEART-FOCUSED COMMUNITY: Belonging and Relational Skills

No one is called to go it alone. We are created for community that goes beyond the surface to sharing life from the heart. Learn the elements of how to create belonging for yourself and others, and strengthen the relational skills that foster life-giving, heart-focused community.
