Jesus commanded us to make disciples
There is a growing recognition of the need to make disciples to live effectively as witnesses to Jesus in our contemporary world. For example this can be seen through the agenda of LICC and in the Setting God’s People Free report from the Church of England.
However, there is a gap between the effective introductory tools such as Alpha, & Christianity Explored and those who seek systematic resources to grow in their Christian faith.
Systematic Life-Long Learning
Our Courses seek to fill that gap by providing skills and opportunities for systematic, Bible-based, lifelong learning to enable holistic discipleship. Each course combines:
-
The word of God…is more precious than gold Psalms 19:10-14
Study on your own or with a friend at home, interacting with a carefully designed workbook and the Bible.
-
For where two or three gather in my name, there am I with them. Matt 18:20
We are committed to group-based discipleship. Discussion of learning takes place in a group setting facilitated by a GOLD leader.
-
Do not conform to the pattern of this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind. Then you will be able to test and approve what God’s will is – his good, pleasing and perfect will. Romans 12:2
Both the personal study and group learning encourage everyone to apply their learning to their every day lives.
-
We learn best by the regular testing of our learning in the personal study, in our group meetings and in the opportunities to complete assignments and reviews.
