Discipleship Resources - August 20, 2020

CHBC,

Have you purposed to put your mind on Christ and His Kingdom? Discipleship is not the second-stage of Christianity. I.e. it does not mean become a convert of believing in Christ, and then later for some of us to begin to be a disciple. Discipleship is a life-time process of what is described in the Great Commission of Matthew 28:18-20. “¹⁸ And Jesus came up and spoke to them, saying, “All authority has been given to Me in heaven and on earth. ¹⁹ Go therefore and make disciples of all the nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and the Son and the Holy Spirit, ²⁰ teaching them to observe all that I commanded you; and lo, I am with you always, even to the end of the age.”

A disciple is made when that person trusts in Christ and is converted to a Christian, when that new believer is baptized, and as that believer grows in the teaching of all of Jesus commands. It is a life long process. The word “discipleship” is not in the New Testament. But “to make a disciple” is a very strong New Testament word that is full of meaning and expression. Our own personal discipleship is the by-product of what others and the Holy Spirit are doing inside of us. Our goal is to be a disciple as we make disciples. May these resources help.

Sunday School Resources for August 9, 2020

Sunday, August 9, 2020

The Pastoral Staff is working on Priority 2, Re-Grouping, of the CHBC Re-Gathering Plan. We hope to have a solution for Sunday School to share in the next few days. Things will have to look and function differently, but we believe we will be able to accommodate a way for Sunday School to resume in the near future. Thank you for your patience. Until then, please continue using the materials below for yourselves, your Zoom classes, or the home groups you have created.

The material for this week’s lessons are linked below.   RSVP for the English-speaking service and ETC at 10 AM. If we do not have enough seating in the Worship Center, or if you are more comfortable in a smaller group, overflow seating will be available in the Choir Suite and in Rooms 200-202.
