Cd 511 X The Pastor And Christian Discipleship, Catherine Stonehouse
Syllabi
"The Pastor and Christian Discipleship" points us in several directions (which is appropriate, since pastors and Christian educators are usually running in several dozen at one time). We’ll look at roles and responsibilities of the pastor or lay leader in the teaching, discipling ministries of the church. You can anticipate navigating through biblical and social science models of understanding, teaching, learning, and faith developing.

It is a method which fosters an integration with, and interaction with theological issues. 3. It encourages the participant to think …
