CTI: How to Help Sinners And Sufferers

Course Description

Introduces students to a church-based, Gospel-centered, Scripture-informed model of people helping people through sin and suffering by the ordinary means of grace, based on understanding how Jesus changes people and how his people are equipped to help from the Scriptures.

Rationale

Since Genesis 3, everyone is hurting from sin and suffering. The Scriptures tell us why we sin and suffer, who we are in Christ, how the Gospel leads to repentance from sin and hope through suffering in progressive change into the image of Christ, and how ordinary believers are equipped by the Spirit and Word to speak the truth in love and comfort one another through suffering. It is imperative believers understand their role in helping one another and are equipped to do so with competence and compassion.

Come join us as we uncover the Bible’s transformative, compelling teaching on this difficulty!
