Abstract
The purpose of this project was to equip parents at Northeast Park Baptist Church in Evansville, Indiana, for family discipleship. It utilized a six-week curriculum followed by two church-provided family dinners to give parents an opportunity to put into practice the lessons they learned. Chapter 1 introduces the church context, rationale, purpose, and goals of the project. Chapter 2 focuses on Psalm 78:1-8 as a foundation for passing on the works of God to the next generation. Chapter 3 explores the role of storytelling in family discipleship. Chapter 4 gives the details and description of the implementation of the project. Chapter 5 evaluates the project and offers its strengths and weaknesses.
