Fellowship Lay Academy (FLA) is the theological equipping classroom taught by Pastor Jason at Fellowship. The Lay Academy is designed for serious students and novice students alike.
If you will commit to showing up and doing the work then this class is for you! FLA will run in a two-year cycle (comprised of 8-week semesters) and will center on four essential historical Christian disciplines: Biblical Interpretation, Church History, Dogmatic Theology, and Practical Theology. Each discipline is arranged around those four classes that will take place over the next two years.
Two weeks from first class you’ll receive your syllabus, and a little homework to prepare in advance. This will also give you time to get the book needed for the class and print out the class companion.
This semester will be Church Dogmatics and Discipleship, which is a survey of important doctrine for the church and its direct application to discipleship within the church. The word refers to a set of systemized truths that serve a purpose. For this class dogmatics serves the local church for the sake of worship. Church Dogmatics attendees will better understand and synthesize important doctrine in order to re-teach it in a disciple-making context. They will discern their own positions on select church doctrines and be equipped to teach core church doctrine to those they disciple.
