Discipleship can be daunting.
Let us help! Join Irving Bible Church for a special weekend of training, equipping, and discipleship with special guest Justin Whitmel Earley.
Formation & Family Discipleship Weekend
Two Workshop Opportunities
The Common Rule
A workshop for all IBCers and Formation Groups
Friday · March 31 · 6:30 - 8:30 p.m.
For better or worse, habits form us more than we form them. In this workshop and based on his award-winning book "The Common Rule – Habits of Purpose for an Age of Distraction," Justin will help us consider a practical Common Rule for spiritual formation. Snacks will be provided and Kids+ childcare is available (register for Kids+ below).
This workshop is free and registration is NOT required. All you have to do is show up!
Habits of the Household
A workshop for families of kids and youth
Saturday · April 1 · 9:00 a.m. - noon
We become our habits, and our kids become us. From morning wake-ups to bedtime, how we spend our time shapes how our kids see the world. In this workshop, Justin will help families see how small moments can be powerful acts of spiritual formation. Kids+ childcare is available.
Registration is required. The cost of this workshop is $10 and includes a light breakfast, lunch, and snacks.
