THE DIGG MINISTRIES
Demetrius Colbert
My Journey
From Church Tradition to a Transforming Faith
For many years, I walked the well-worn path of traditional Christianity. I attended the services, served faithfully, and embraced the practices I was taught. But deep within, I carried a hunger for something more — not more activity, but more authenticity. I longed to truly know God, not just through doctrine or routine, but through a living, daily connection with the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit.
​
I’m deeply thankful for my spiritual foundation, yet over time I began to realize that much of what I was building was centered on structure, not intimacy — on doing things for God rather than living with Him. Even after planting two churches, I sensed that my true calling wasn’t to lead in the traditional pastoral sense, but to teach and walk alongside others in discovering the kind of biblical truth that transforms — truth that anchors us in Christ and knits us faithfully into His body.
​
Where Faith Meets Thoughtfulness
I believe God never intended for faith and reason to be enemies. He gave us both — a heart to believe and a mind to seek. Yet, I’ve seen how many believers quietly wrestle with hard questions they don’t feel safe asking. And I’ve met many seekers who were genuinely curious but felt dismissed by shallow answers or overused clichés.
​
My mission now is to help create space for honest exploration and thoughtful discipleship — a place where faith isn't afraid of questions, and truth is pursued with humility and reverence.
​
Core Areas I’m Passionate About:
-
Belonging: True belonging in Christ isn't found in fitting in — it’s found in being fully known and fully loved by Him and His people. It's not about performance, but about presence — abiding in Him and being embraced by the community He calls family.
-
Apologetics: Offering clear, respectful, and thoughtful responses to those who doubt, question, or seek.
-
Soteriology: Understanding the depth of what Jesus accomplished — not just saving us from something, but saving us for a life of grace, purpose, and eternal fellowship.
-
Biblical Worldview: Viewing life through the lens of Scripture — learning to see the world not just as it is, but as God sees it.
-
Christian Values: Not merely spoken but lived — in integrity, compassion, courage, and love.

A Community for the Hungry and Humble
I’m building a space for those who are hungry for more — more understanding, more clarity, more depth. Like the Bereans, who searched the Scriptures daily to see if what they heard was true, we want to be students of the Word, lovers of truth, and people of grace.
This journey is not about having all the answers. It’s about being committed to the search — together.
​
Two Scriptures That Guide Me:
“Always be prepared to give an answer to everyone who asks you to give the reason for the hope that you have. But do this with gentleness and respect.” – 1 Peter 3:15
​
“May I never boast except in the cross of our Lord Jesus Christ, through which the world has been crucified to me, and I to the world.” – Galatians 6:14
​
Let’s Walk This Road Together
If any of this speaks to where you are in your faith journey, I invite you to walk with me. Let’s go deeper together — not for the sake of knowledge alone, but to become the kind of people who reflect Christ in a world that desperately needs to see Him.
With grace and gratitude,
Demetrius
