What you’ll learn
Belonging is not the end of it. Sooner or later everyone has to decide what they make of Jesus of Nazareth, because everything else in the Christian faith rests on the answer. Believe is where discipleship begins.
The course runs in two halves. Foundation of the Faith I, six classes: the one God who is Father, Son and Holy Spirit, who Jesus is, the cross, the resurrection, turning and trusting, and new birth. Foundation of the Faith II, six more: the Holy Spirit, baptism, the Lord's Supper, the Bible, prayer, and the hope ahead.
The whole course rests on one thing: what is offered here is given, not earned. Every few classes you meet with someone from the pastoral team to talk about what you have watched and what it means for everyday life.
