  1. The WHO, WHAT, WHEN, WHERE and WHY of Christianity PURPOSE: If someone doesn’t learn anything else about Christianity, once they become a Christian, if they understand these six concepts, they have adequate knowledge to live the Christian life.

  2. HOW IT WORKS The format of these studies is as follows: • Participants are asked to complete a pre-study questionnaire in order to gain what their thoughts/beliefs are currently on the subject matter to be discussed. • Each participant brings their completed question to the group discussion. • The student begins and ends with prayer. • Once the study begins, each participant, if they choose, shares their answer to question. • Then the facilitator introduces a Scripture that addresses God’s answer to the question. • Then each participant answers to the following two questions: • What does this verse or verses mean? • How should we apply these words to our lives? • The study continues until all of the questions are addressed with Scripture.

  3. OVERVIEW This study is composed of the following materials: • Participant Questionnaire • Participant Workbook • Leader Guide • Powerpoint Presentations – WHO and HOW • Take Aways • Bookmarks • Word Puzzles • T-Shirt • Jar of Dirt

  8. JAR OF DIRT TAKE AWAYS We had jars of dirt as keepsakes of the retreat in consideration of the following verses: Genesis 2:7 - And the LORD God formed man of the dust of the ground, and breathed into his nostrils the breath of life; and man became a living Corinthians 15:49 - And as we have borne the image of the man of dust, we shall also bear the image of the heavenly Man. As a keepsake, we had the boys dif up dirt and place it in these jars. They then had a keepsake of the retreat to remind themselves of their dependency on God because with God, they are just dirt. JAR LABEL: “I am just dust.” Thank GOD for the Holy Spirit! Covecrest-2007

  10. T-SHIRT TAKE AWAYS Each participant can receive a T-Shirt for participating in the study. This is an option that can be desired. We could do customized or offer a generic T-Shirt. Of course, we would need to discuss the logistics of offering such an option.
