What You'll Learn
Course Introduction
Welcome to this intensive study on the theological foundations of the home-church partnership. As Apostolic ministers, we must recognize that the family is not merely a social unit, but a divine embassy of the Kingdom. We will explore how the local church acts as a supporting structure to the foundational discipleship ordained to occur under the priesthood of parents.
