dc.description.abstract | This project seeks to train the members of Pinckard Baptist Church in Pinckard, Alabama, for wholistic care to those who are in foster care and eligible for adoption. Chapter 1 presents the history and ministry context of Pinckard Baptist Church as well as the goals of this project. Chapter 2 provides exegesis and thematic considerations of three biblical passages (Gen 1:26-28; Jas 1:27; Eph 1:3-6) to demonstrate God’s position and posture concerning the care of orphans. Chapter 3 presents evidence and arguments that churches are to affirm the totality of the pro-life spectrum through inclusion and engagement of orphan care. Chapter 4 describes the project itself, recounting the content and teaching methodology of the specific course curriculum. Chapter 5 evaluates the efficacy of the project based on the completion of the four specified goals. This project seeks to train Christians with the biblical worldview and motivation to minister to orphans and aims to prepare participants from a position of knowledge to future next steps to minister and care for children who are orphaned, for their good and to the glory of God. | en_US |
