This course –at this time--is not for everyone and you should feel no pressure. If you prayerfully consider it and have a “not now, thanks” response you are ok with me. If you prayerfully consider it and say, “I’m in” then be ready to be “in.” This will be the most intensive and intentional training I’ve done in the last 5 years.
This learning community will be operating together on the following understanding…
Believing that continuity is important to the development of a unique learning community and knowing my own weakness…
* I will purpose to attend both hours of all 11 Wednesdays of the discipleship course.
* I will complete lessons 1-6 of GospelTransformation PRIOR to the first class meeting on September 6th.
* I will memorize Romans 3:19-26 PRIOR to the first class meeting on September 6th
* I will purpose to complete the weekly homework.
