Our third “E” stands for “Equip Disciple-makers”.  We believe Jesus has asked every one of His followers to not only be disciples, but to make them as well.  One of the jobs of a local church is to equip God’s people for this important work of disciple-making.  Here at New River, we have developed a disciple track that includes an introduction called “New Friends Lunch”; Life Groups; Leadership cohort; Ministry Teams; and a set of classes that we cycle through every year called “Foundations”.  In these classes we cover four areas of life where our faith gets lived out.  These four areas also are where many folks get tripped up, which is why we repeat them annually.  These four classes are: 

Marriage; Family; Finances; and, Theology.

BIBLICAL INTERPRETATION

In this class Pastor Robin will teach you how to discern the difference between Biblical poetry and history.  You’ll learn the difference between a “gospel” and an “epistle”.  And you’ll learn so much more!  The truth is, a student must read Genesis differently than they read Psalms.  But how?  Pastor Robin will equip you!
