Directive:
Christian Training Fellowship exists to further equip believers in Jesus Christ and to provide a space for positive interaction between those believers. The highest goal is to inspire a hunger for the things of God in its members. CTF exists only to give to its members and will remain completely free and nothing will ever be sold. The two fold goal of CTF is found in Ephesians 4:12-16 “To equip the saints and build up the body”.
Membership:
Initially, this group will be by invitation only. All members are encouraged to interact and invite others to become members as well.
Academics:
Biblical Courses will be offered on a quarterly basis. Each course will include a series of classes that will be broken down into 20 minute segments. This will allow the member maximum flexibility to study at his or her own pace.
There will be optional grading that will require some or all of the following: assigned reading, quizzes, tests and research papers. All courses will include a syllabus and course materials, free of charge.
Certificates of completion will be issued to those that complete all course work.
Fellowship:
The goal is to be more than an online group, we are a fellowship. CTF will work to ensure that a spirit of community is developed between its members. Ephesians 4:16 “When each part is working properly, makes the body grow so that it builds itself up in love.”
Outreach:
All members will be encouraged to participate in our online outreach Positive Connections. Positive connections is a YouTube channel that will exist to reach those that may not know about Jesus or may even be hostile towards the things of God. While outreach will take on many forms the guiding principle will always be love. John 13:35 “By this all men will know you are my disciples, if you love one another.”
