Developing and Implementing a Membership Curriculum at Emmanuel International Church of Ternes in Paris, France

Abstract

This project seeks to develop and implement a membership curriculum at Emmanuel International Church of Ternes in Paris, France. Chapter 1 provides the unique ministry context of an international church and the goals of this project. Chapter 2 provides exegesis of five passages of Scripture (Hos 1:9-10; 1 Pet 2:4-11; Acts 2:40-47; 1 Cor 5:1-13; Eph 4:11-15) to show the importance of church membership. Chapter 3 presents the views, examples, and content provided in church membership courses. Chapter 4 describes the content and teaching methodology of the membershipcurriculum. Chapter 5 evaluates the efficacy of the project based on completion of the specified goals. This project seeks to provide opportunities for individuals to become a member of the local body, understand the importance of membership, and reap the rewards of membership.
