Developing a Family Worship Curriculum for First Baptist Church in Keller, Texas

Abstract

This project sought to increase family worship practices in the homes of church members of First Baptist Church in Keller, Texas. Chapter 1 presents the ministry context, rationale, and methodology for this project. Chapter 2 provides the biblical warrant for the project. In looking at Deuteronomy 6:4-9, Psalm 78:1-8, and Ephesians 6:1-4, it is clear that every parent is commanded to teach their children to know and love God. Chapter 3 synthesizes three family worship scholars’ viewpoints on the scripture passages emphasized in chapter 2 that inspired the methodology and the creation and implementation of the curriculum for this project. Chapter 4 describes each step leading up to the implementation of the curriculum and a detailed overview of the implementation process used for this project. Chapter 5 is an evaluation of the effectiveness of the project when compared to the set goals. This project developed and encouraged a culture of family worship to grow mature, multiplying followers of Christ at First Baptist Church in Keller, Texas.
