The spiritual life is ordinary everyday life, lived in ever-deepening and loving relationship with God, with all people and with creation itself. The discipleship process gives such life direction and depth. The RCA has defined discipleship as the process of following Jesus Christ and becoming like him in all we think, say, and do, for the purpose of being the very presence of Christ in a lost and broken world so loved by God.
This journey begins as a child, an infant at baptism, and continues our whole life long. Our ministry for children is designed to bring them the stories of God in such a way that they begin to see those stories as their story and come to know Christ. Another aspect of our ministry with children is our commitment to pray for and with our children and teach them to pray. In the Winter of 2007, we launched a new rotation model curriculum on prayer.
