He personally gave some to be apostles, some prophets, some evangelists, some pastors and teachers, for the training of the saints in the work of ministry, to build up the body of Christ, until we all reach unity in the faith and in the knowledge of God’s Son
Ephesians 4: 11-13 HCSB
Being a disciple is a process that lasts a lifetime. Our intention through these pages is to provide resources, tested in the ministry of a local church, that will help you on your journey.
These resources arose out of the life and ministry of Altrincham Baptist Church in Manchester, England. Over a period of years we have sought to develop innovative ministries such as First Sunday (Seeker Service), Workout (our own equivalent to Alpha) and Foundations (for New Christians). To facilitate this we have developed our own in-house material. The Digital Disciple web site is one of the means by which we would like to make these resources more widely available, both within our own fellowship and beyond.

FOUNDATIONS is a 12-part course (with additional teaching material by Nigel G Wright, Principal of Spurgeon's College, London) which explores the basic teachings, practices and personal application of the Christian faith. It is designed for use in small groups but is also suitable for individual study.
