Weekly worship and Bible classes are times we spend honoring God and uplifting each other. Part of God’s plan for the church is that these times also equip believers with a knowledge of God that strengthens their faith. God “gave the apostles, the prophets, the evangelists, the shepherds and teachers, to equip the saints for the work of ministry, for building up the body of Christ…” (Ephesians 4:11-12). Equipping is an intentional, weekly process.
