917c6dab-a235-42b9-912e-91a63e3f01ae Follow me: a disciple knows and follows Jesus When we look at the life of Jesus, it is very clear that his mind and his worldview were deeply formed by the Scriptures. As we read the Gospels, we see that he was literate, conversant, and passionate about the Word of God. And he calls his followers to be the same. A disciple of Jesus needs to understand and embrace the essential teachings of the Bible. Each month we will explore an essential doctrine of God’s Word through video and print resources. We hope that you will find these helpful in your discipleship journey. The Doctrine of God the Son BOOKS Jesus the King by Tim Keller Christ the Eternal King by A. W.

MARIAN GREEN Communications Administrator I’m the Communications Admin here, and I absolutely love what I do! I’m a proud mom of two amazing college kids, Max (23) and Emily (19). When I’m not working, you’ll probably find me in the kitchen trying out a new recipe, squeezing in a workout, or just enjoying time with family and friends. One interesting fact about me is that I started attending Cedarbrook in 2005, and it’s where I met Jesus. That moment changed everything for me. Later on, I went back to school and earned my Bachelor's degree in Information Technology from the University of Phoenix, which was a huge milestone in my life. I have a heart for connecting people, and in this digital world, I find so much joy in using online platforms to share the love of Christ. Also, I’ll never say no to a good hamburger, it’s definitely one of my favorites! mariang@cedarbrook.org
