Family Discipleship: Making Christlike Disciples in Your Home
Rev. Angie Hancock
An average family may spend up to 4 hours a week at church. That means the remaining time is outside of church! Should the task of discipleship be limited to those 4 hours? In this workshop, you will learn of God’s command to disciple others and how it begins in the home. You will gain some practical ideas to use right away to help make Christlike disciples in your own family, no matter the size, shape, or age!

Edificando El Hogar – Proverbios 14:1

Este verso nos habla de que la mujer necia derriba su casa con sus propias manos, pero no se puede derribar algo que no se ha construido. La pregunta entonces es, ¿En qué momento esta mujer sabia comenzó a actuar con necedad y derribó lo que había edificado?
Aprenderemos tres aspectos en los que la mujer de hoy muy fácilmente actúa con necedad y con sus propias manos derriba lo que ha edificado.
