Equipping the Households of Oak Ridge Baptist Church in Marietta, Texas, for Theological Instruction

Abstract

This project seeks to equip households of Oak Ridge Baptist Church in Marietta, Texas, to teach theology. Chapter 1 presents the context of the project, the goals of the project, and the rationale and methodology used. Chapter 2 provides exegesis of four passages of Scripture (Deut 6:4-9; Judg 2:10-13; Eph 6:4; 1 Cor 14:35) to show that Scripture affirms the household’s responsibility in theological instruction. Chapter 3 provides an explanation of ecclesial subsidiarity and examples of this idea in Scripture. Chapter 4 describes the details of the project, including the content, materials, and teaching methodology of the curriculum. Chapter 5 evaluates the effectiveness of this project as well as shows the measurements used to determine its success. This project seeks to glorify God in the homes of his people.
