Abstract

dc:description.abstract

This project sought to equip members of the First Baptist Church of Commerce, Oklahoma, to engage for spiritual growth. Chapter 1 presents the ministry context of First Baptist Church and the goals of this project. Chapter 2 provides an exegesis of three passages of Scripture (Neh 8; Pss 1; 119:9–16) to show the prominent role of Bible engagement in discipleship. Chapter 3 presents the evangelicals as models for Bible engagement. Chapter 4 describes the implementation of this project, which was a course on Bible engagement. Chapter 5 evaluates the efficacy of the project based on the completion of the specified goals. This project trained believers to engage the Bible in a meaningful fashion in order to grow as disciples of Christ.
