The Discipleship and Family Department assists church leaders in their continuing task of equipping members for Christian discipleship by training them in new member orientation, leader development, doctrinal instruction, church history, constitution and by-laws, church staff job descriptions and church polity. This area of work also offers assistance with church recreation and drama, media libraries, Bible drills, health and fitness, and other personal growth support ministries.
For more information on these areas, or any other discipleship and family events, please contact us at 800-226-8584, ext. 3070 or e-mail the department. |
