What is the goal of Spiritual Formation at CFC?
Unity, Knowledge and Maturity …
It was he who gave some to be apostles, some to be prophets, some
to be evangelists, and some to be pastors and teachers to prepare
God’s people for works of service, so that the body of Christ may be
built up until we all reach unity in the faith and in the knowledge
of the Son of God and become mature, attaining to the whole measure
of the fullness of Christ. (Ephesians 4:11-13)
We recognize that spiritual formation in the life of a believer is a
work of God’s grace empowered by the Holy Spirit. We are called to
work out our salvation with fear and trembling for it is God who
works in us to will and act according to his good purpose
(Philippians 2:12-13).
Jesus also makes it clear that the life of a disciple involves
obedience and sacrifice as we follow him. Then Jesus said to them
all: “If anyone would come after me, he must deny himself and take
up his cross daily and follow me.” (Luke 9:23)
As we grow in our walk with the Lord, CFC offers a variety of
spiritual growth and development opportunities to support our
journey toward maturity in Christ.
