Discipleship Curriculum


Introduction to Spiritual Formation

In the next nine studies we will be taking a look at the causes and motivations that block our spiritual growth. This subject is often called "Christian Formation" or "Spiritual Formation," or the "Ecology of Faith Development."
It all comes down to a decision. Will we make our faith real and impacting, relinquishing our pride to allow us to learn and grow, and in turn teach others, or will we plant our rears in the pew, so that our only impact is our butt print in that pew!
His call, above all else for us as Christians, of what God's will is all about, and of what we are to be doing in our personal lives and in our churches is… Discipleship! Nothing else is more important, period.
Are you a committed Christian or a surrendered Christian?
The picture of life is the church as we relate to the world, living and working in the power of the Spirit by what Christ has done.
Christ is the Teacher, but He is not only a Teacher! If we see Him only as a teacher, we will become flustered by being totally unable to do as He instructs.
Sin and the wrath of God are to be taken seriously, especially by those who reject Him.
God is involved, that He does indeed care, and that He is concerned and does intervene in history, thus we can trust Him.
We are to wait, but we are not to be idle while we wait. We are to be involved and make every effort to know Him and make Him known.
We can be influencers even if we are being influenced from the wrong areas and guidelines.
