Christian Education

Teaching God’s Word with Excellence and with Power

The ministry of Christian education is one of the most important ministries in the body of Christ. The bible gives us the Great Commission in Matthew 28:19-20, “Therefore go and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, and teaching them to obey everything I have commanded you. And surely I am with you always, to the very end of the age.” As Christian educators, our job is to teach classes, train teachers, and design curricula. We are also responsible for teaching love, respect, and obedience to God and the principles laid out for us in His word.

Mission Statement

The mission of Christian education is to train and equip members in the knowledge and understanding of God’s word. This is accomplished by:

Continuing to evaluate, modify, and improve the existing curriculum to better meet the needs of the people
To have a high degree of excellence in all areas of the teaching and learning experience
To provide resources for spiritual and intellectual needs

Objective

To meet the educational needs of the congregation by providing a balanced curriculum that is bible based, and that allows each member to grow toward Christian knowledge and understanding. We also strive to ignite a burning desire for God’s word in the hearts and minds of believers. Our goals are to:

Ensure that everyone has knowledge, and knows how to experience the forgiving and saving grace of God
Motivate each Christian to become an intelligent, active, and devoted part of the body of Christ
Nurturing and developing the skills needed to fully understand, appreciate and participate in the worship experience
Help believers develop a Christ-like attitude in their everyday lives and experiences
Promote Christian growth and development, and encourage believers to invest their time, talent, and skills for the kingdom of God.
