The Growth Track Courses are designed to help people follow Jesus day by day by knowing God, discovering their identity in Him, partnering with His people, and living sent into the world. Through teaching, reflection, spiritual formation, and community, each course builds on the next as participants grow in relationship with God and participation in His mission.
Who is God?
Course 1 is the first step of the Growth Track Courses and is centered on knowing God and learning to partner with Him in His ways.
This course invites participants into a deeper understanding of who God is, how He moves toward His people, and how He invites us into life with Him.
Over six weeks, we trace the story of God—from His awe-inspiring nature to His mission in the world—and discover how our identity, calling, and daily lives are shaped by His presence.
Prerequisite: Alpha
Who Am I?
Course 2 is the second step of the Growth Track Courses and invites participants to explore who
they are in light of who God is.
This course focuses on the work of the heart— inviting God to reveal the true condition of our hearts, align us with His truth, and form us into people who follow Him faithfully. Participants will learn what it means to deny themselves, take up their cross, and allow God to transform their hearts. Through reflection, spiritual formation, and community, participants will be prepared to participate more fully in God’s mission through the life of
the church.
Prerequisite: Course 1
Who Are We?
Course 3 is the third step in our Growth Track and invites participants to explore what it means to partner with God and with His people at Branch Church.
Building on Course 1 (knowing God) and Course 2 (identity and heart transformation), this course focuses on community, alignment, and participation. Participants will learn why partnership matters, how it is lived out practically through gathering, growing, going, and giving, and how their personal calling connects to the church’s mission, vision, and values. By the end of the course, participants will be equipped to live more intentionally as part of the Body of Christ and prepared to step into Course 4: Where Do We Go?
Prerequisite: Course 2
Where Do We Go?
Course 4 is the fourth step in our Growth Track and invites participants to live as sent people—joining God in His mission in the everyday places He has already planted them.
Building on Course 1 (knowing God), Course 2 (heart transformation and identity), and Course Three (partnership and community), this course focuses on mission, discernment, and living attentively to the leading of the Holy Spirit. Participants will learn what it means to live missionally through everyday rhythms of life, how to recognize where God is already at work, and how to respond to His invitation with faith, presence, and community. Through Go Groups and shared practices, participants will be equipped to follow Jesus together and embody His love, peace, and presence in the world around them.
