Getting Involved at Living WordDiscipleship and FellowshipChristianity Explored is an informal course for people who'd like to investigate Christianity, or just brush up on the basics. It explores who Jesus was, what his aims were, and what it means to follow him. You won't be asked to pray, sing or read aloud, and you can ask any questions you like. Or, if you prefer, you can just come along and listen.Christianity Explored courses are usually held once in the Fall and once in the Spring. If you're interested in joining us for this introduction to the Christian faith, please contact us. ___________________________________
Discipleship Explored is a journey into the book of Philippians. As they discover Paul's extraordinary letter, participants explore for themselves the meaning of Paul's words: "For me, to live is Christ and to die is gain." Discipleship Explored is the follow-up course for Christnity Explored, but you needn't have gone through the first course to be involved. This course is for anyone who desire to know what it means to follow Jesus. We plan to offer a DE course in the Winter of 2009. ___________________________________
