CHRISTIAN EDUCATION The IPCC Christian Education Department promotes the health of discipleship in local churches. It is not only confined to Sunday School, but to the development of ministries/programs established to teach believers of every age Biblical living. Additionally, Christian Education can be a vital evangelistic tool in the life of the church. How can the Christian Education Department help your local church? Through a variety of resources like the following: Conference Center Bookstore - This mail order bookstore is operated as a resource to churches to assist them in acquiring media, curriculum, Bibles and more for use in their local ministry. Items which can be acquired at competitive, discounted and wholesale prices include everything from CDs, video projectors, offering plates and books to sound equipment. Seminars - On a limited basis, the Christian Education Department makes available Evening or Saturday morning seminars to groups of local IPCC churches. These seminars include such topics as, "How to be a great teacher?" "Evangelism and the Classroom," "Quality," "Using Media" and more. They are also multi-sensory (employing video and graphics as teaching tools). For more information contact Pastor Brent Hubbard at nyd@IPCCyouth.com Conferences - The department joins like departments of other Pentecostal denominations to present leadership training conferences for our pastors and laypeople. * Church Leadership Conference (Music Road Hotel, Pigeon Forge, TN) - This conference every September is relaxed, offering tracks in Men's Ministry, Women's Ministry and Evangelism.
