Equipping Members of A. Umut Kilisesi in Central Asia, with an Introductory Framework for Biblical Change

This project seeks to equip the members of A. Umut Kilisesi (AUK) in CentralAsia, with an introductory framework for biblical change. Chapter 1 explains the context of AUK and the goals of this project. Chapter 2 examines five key texts that give a framework for biblical change: Psalm 46, 1 Peter 2:9–12; Matthew 11:28–30, Galatians 5:13–6:10, and Psalm 1. Chapter 3 outlines the essential biblical criteria to use when evaluating counseling curricula, and then applies these criteria to my context in Central Asia by explaining and evaluating two curricula. Chapter 4 describes the content and process of teaching the ten-lesson biblical change curriculum developed for AUK. Chapter 5 then evaluates the project based on completion of the specified goals. Ultimately, this projects seeks to equip the average believer in Central Asia to change and help others change as he or she walks by faith in Christ together with others in a local church.
