“Equip the saints for the work of ministry.”
The Apostle Paul tells us in Ephesians 4 that the job of those called to lead is to keep on equipping our people and building up the body of Christ until we all attain to the unity of the faith. As a communion, the CEEC.CHURCH desires to provide the tools that will help you equip those you serve, whether that is a single disciple, a small group, a church or a nation.
We are committed to hands on, shoulder to shoulder ministry training. The word of God says that”iron sharpens iron,” but that is only true if they are in close contact with one another; and often there must be a bit of friction involved. We have to be close enough to one another to touch each other’s lives; and we must trust one another enough to live through the friction.
We pray that the resources you find in this area will draw you into closer relationship — both with the Lord Jesus Christ and the people with whom you are in close fellowship. May you be equipped for the work of ministry, be built up in Christ, and press on until we attain the unity of the faith that comes from maturity in Christ Jesus.
