Courseguide: PM 312 Biblical Disciple-making I.: Course Objectives

According to the BMATS Course Catalog:

"A careful study is made of the biblical and philosophical bases for disciple-making. Using the DiscipleWay model, attention is given to spiritual disciplines such as Bible study, prayer, and worship for the purposes of personal spiritual formation and disciple-making.” During this course, the students will not only be discipled in the areas of Bible study, prayer, and worship, but they will be trained to help lead others in the same disciplines."

By the end of the semester, the student should… 

• come to an understanding of the importance of spiritual growth, experience personal spiritual growth, and comprehend the biblical background for the concept of helping-others grow in Christian discipleship.
• begin to understand a process of making disciples that is reproducible.
• perform an inductive Bible study with any passage of Scripture using the inductive method taught in DiscipleWay
• comprehend the nature of prayer and how to pray through a passage as one studies Scripture.
• understand more fully how to achieve the greatest benefit from worship experiences by taking on the correct attitudes as one enters into worship.
