Cultivating the Seeds of the Gospel Today

At the heart of all vibrant faith communities is the mission of forming people of all ages and generations in Christian faith and discipleship for a lifetime. How and what a congregation is learning is critical to building a vital congregation. Churches can build a culture of lifelong faith formation that forms, sustains, and deepens Christian discipleship for everyone.

This three-part webinar series will guide church leaders in envisioning a lifelong approach to faith formation that engages all of the ages and generations in the faith community; and in applying practical strategies for developing holistic, effective, and innovative faith formation “cultivates the seeds of the Gospel” in families, children, youth, and adults.
