IF YOU HAVE NOT ATTENDED EXPLORING MEMBERSHIP 101 YET,
PLEASE CONSIDER IT - MORE THAN 1000 ADULTS HAVE DONE SO!
Here are just a few observations from some of those who have attended...
"Last night I completed Lifelines 101. I certainly enjoyed each segment and those that led them. That’s why I’ve copied them on this email – to let them know I appreciate the good job they did. Even though I’ve been a Christian for 43 years and have been on staff at SBC churches and worked for the SBC Executive Committee for 12 years, I still think it’s a great idea to have the Lifelines program and make at least 101 a prerequisite for certain types of service. I look forward to great things with HHBC." Mary C.
"I am impressed with Exploring Membership and the entire Lifelines plan. I need this structure and guidance to get me on the right path for spiritual growth. I am excited about what this means for our church and look forward to what God has in store." Ginny S.
"The 101 Lifeline class has helped me understand what it means to be a Baptist. It has helped me to understand what is expected of me as a Baptist, and how Hermitage Hills Baptist church operates and relates to other Baptist Church organizations. Knowing this gives me the information to speak clearly to others about what we are about. I know it will help me focus on my personal growth in the church and in my relationship with Christ." James H.
"I was also wondering if I could get a copy of the CD's to keep for my personal library, because I really learned so much from the many questions I have had over the years as a believer. The CD's were the PERFECT resource for me, as I spend at least two hours in my car commuting to and from work. It gave me the opportunity to complete something necessary in my spiritual life to help me grow and feel confident in the decisions I have made through the
work of the Holy Spirit's presence in my life. On a more personal note, I was raised in the Catholic faith until my late 20's, and the CD's helped to explain the many questions I had (or had been asked by members of my family and friends) over the years. The CD's answered questions regarding baptism, and the Lord's Supper, and other topics of discussion in a very simple and easy to understand way; a way that I could explain to someone else in the future. Even though I acted in faith in getting baptised by immersion at Two Rivers Baptist Church in 1992 after being saved in 1991, the CD's really explained the process in a way that I can take and share with others who may be going through the same type of spiritual conviction.
Thank you for your role in helping to make items like the CD's available to one busy mom. " Laura H.
Lifelines is a ministry designed to challenge and encourage spiritual growth among our membership and those friends who are checking us out. It’s more than a program; it’s a path. A path that anyone can follow; a path that will provide our church family tools to effectively Love our Community, Impact our City, Fortify our Nation, and Embrace our World.
