FWL
In pursuit of this mission the project seeks:
- to articulate Christian faith not as a changing collection of ad hoc beliefs or even as a set of interrelated convictions but as a vision of a way of life;
- to help pastors and the people they shepherd embody such a faith in their own lives as individuals and communities;
- to help pastors communicate faith as a way of life in compelling ways, through preaching, teaching, and all the ministries carried out by their churches.
- to introduce changes into the processes of theological education that make them better suited for the preparation of pastors.
“Through participating in the National Working Group, I’ve experienced growth as a leader in my congregation and as a Christian looking to walk faithfully with Christ. These studies and connec-tions among members of the group have opened new vistas to my understanding of faith and faithful action.”
