Join Us For Class
February is an exciting month for Calvary Baptist Church. We are starting two classes. One for our youth (6th grade and up) and one for our adults. You will find the details of the courses below. Please join us.
Class Title: Christian Worldview For Youth
Date & Time: Each Wednesday at 6:30 pm (Starts February 17, 2010)
Facilitator: Brian Zinn
Description: Nothing is more important than seeding deep within the heart and mind of a child core Christian convictions like Jesus is God; The reasons we know Jesus Christ rose from the dead, why we should be convinced the Bible is a true and accurate revelation from beginning to end and the absolute truth that Jesus is the only way to God. Unless our children know these and other key doctrines revealed in the Bible, they will not be thoroughly equipped for every good work.
Although the word “doctrine” sometimes intimidates people, it is nothing more than a description of the will of God and the Gospel. If we have not trained the hearts and minds of our children to love sound teachings then we should not be surprised when three-fourths of them eventually walk away from the faith in college.
This course will be Gospel centered and will equip those taking the class to have a Biblical Worldview. The purpose of training is to prepare the soil of our child’s heart so they will seek God for themselves and be convicted of their own sinfulness and their need to repent. Compelling a child to “pray a sinner’s prayer” will not save them. It will only make false converts if the heart is not prepared for God’s presence.
Class Title: Evangelism: The Way of the Master
Date & Time: Each Sunday at 5:00 pm (Starts February 28, 2010)
Facilitator: Travis Yates
Description: These lessons will teach you to overcome your fears by using a proven, powerfully effective way to make the gospel make sense. You won’t be at a loss for words. You don’t need to be an expert in apologetics. Instead, you’ll learn the forgotten biblical principle of bypassing the intellect (the place of argument) and speaking directly to the conscience (the place of the knowledge of right and wrong) — the way Jesus did.
This course will cover a number of types of evangelism including one-to-one witnessing, open air preaching and the effectiveness of using Gospel Tracts.
