Memorable Discipleship: Leading Families into a Living Faith by Living out the Faith Together

For many, the doctrines of the faith are ideas meant to be memorized and recited. But memorization on its own is rarely memorable. Discipling our families into a living faith is only possible if we live out the faith together. How can we help our kids to cultivate this kind of living faith that connects the head and the heart? A faith that is not boring or dry, but engaging, life-giving, and even adventurous. How do we get from a memorized faith to a memorable faith? Join us as we explore answers to these questions together.

ADVANCE REGISTRATION REQUIRED - register by MARCH 6.  (SPACE IS LIMITED!)
