God has a plan for your life.
What happens now?
Next Steps is a class designed to help you become a disciple of Jesus by guiding you through the four steps of discipleship. With our help, you can learn to follow Jesus closely and live a life of purity, just like Him. Following Christ is a walk, not a run and we want to help you make the right steps.
Next Steps Class
We believe that discipleship is a journey, not a destination. Join us as we explore four key steps to help you grow in your faith and deepen your relationship with God.
01
Bible Reading Plan
In the Word is an excellent bible reading plan that will help you get started with reading the Word of God. Our starter reading plan is perfect for those who are new to the Bible or looking to refresh their knowledge. With our one-month plan, you'll be able to dive into the scriptures and develop a deeper understanding of God's word. Join us on this journey of spiritual growth and discovery with In the Word.
03
Prayer & Coaching
Our prayer coaches are a group of excellent men and women of God who are here to pray for and guide you. If you need prayer and counseling, we are here to help. You will receive a message from your personal prayer coach who you can text whenever you need them. We are here to answer your questions and support you on your spiritual journey. If you would like to communicate with us, you can email us using the link below.
02
Next Steps Class
Next Steps Class is an excellent online discipleship class that meets once a week. In this class, you will learn about the Bible, Christian foundations, who God, Jesus Christ, and the Holy Spirit really are, and to fellowship with other new believers starting on their walk with Christ. This class is hosted by Fela & Clara Dodd on Google Meet weekly. Join us on Thursdays at 7PM EST by clicking the link below.
04
Finding a Church
We believe that to be discipled, you need a place to fellowship with other Christians, pray corporately, worship together, and a group of pastors to pour into you. That's why we're here to help you find the perfect church for your spiritual growth and development. Let us guide you on your journey to finding a community of believers that will support and encourage you every step of the way. Ask your prayer coach to help you find a good church.

Meet Our Directors
Fela & Clara Dodd
Discipleship Directors & Next Steps Coaches
"Our names are Fela and Clara, and we hail from the vibrant city of Houston, Texas. We have since moved to Orlando, Florida, where we reside. The move was inspired by our desire to follow God's dream for us, and it has been an incredible adventure!
Our passion is to see the Kingdom of God grow. We believe this can happen anywhere and everywhere — from a heartfelt conversation at a coffee shop to organizing mass crusades. A wise friend once told us, "expect the unexpected when you are following the Lord," and that is how it's been since we both said YES to the Lord.
I, Clara, have a few favorite pastimes that keep me grounded and joyful. I love fishing, reading, watching movies, and savoring a good cup of coffee. Fela, on the other hand (and yes, I'm writing this for him), enjoys reading, watching movies, exercising, and watching football.
While we might sound like regular folks, our love for Jesus truly defines us. We are excited to see where this faith journey will lead and are always open to sharing our experiences and learning from others."
