This year, CBC launched the Family Discipleship Ministry. Since March, we have had biblical instruction and discussion on topics such as, "The Biblical Role of Family Members", "Training our Children to Serve", "Family Devotions", "Crafting a Biblical Vision for our Families", "Navigating the World's Culture", and "Family Worship". Praise the Lord for His work in the lives of our families, and for His wonderful Word which illumines our way.
Our activity time has included such events as game night, distribution of love packets to our community, Scripture treasure hunt, regressive dinner, and a movie night. Young and "not so young" enjoyed our bond in Christ as His family.
The Family Discipleship Ministry will resume in January. May God draw us all closer to one another, as we draw nearer and nearer to Him.

Movie Night FAQ
1.Why are we being asked to bring along our own seating?
The usual folding chairs will be available for use in the gym, but we thought that you might appreciate the option of bringing along something a little more comfortable. We suggest your favorite lawn chairs, bean-bag chairs, or even a blanket for the little guys.
2.What is the schedule for the evening?
We will begin with a 15-minute time of elder-led instruction (Robert Lowrie). At 7:30 we will begin the "Time Changer" movie. It will end around 9:20 P.M. A very brief discussion time will follow the movie. Our event should end by 9:30 P.M.
3. Is the church seeking to make a profit on the sale of the DVD's?
No. We will not benefit financially from the sale of the DVD's.
FYI: Although there is no cost to those of us who are attending the movie, as a church we did have to pay a fee to the producer for permission to show the film publically. However, by offering the DVD's for sale, the producer is allowing us to show the movie for half of the usual charge... even if we don't sell any.
4. What is included in the 4-Film Bundle?
If you purchase the film, "Time Changer", you recieve 3 other Rich Christiano films free. They are, "End of the Harvest", "The Appointment", and "Second Glance".
DeLorme Family Review: Like "Time Changer", these films are also biblically sound and family friendly. However, they were created in the late 80's and early 90's and do reflect the styles, music, and technology of that time. This is a bit distracting, in our opinion.
We preferred, "Unidentified" which followed "Time Changer". It is NOT included in the 4-Film Bundle but is available for order ($10). It is like "Time Changer" in quality and is excellently produced.
5. FYI: Rich Christiano has a movie that is currently out in theaters..."The Secrets of Jonathan Sperry". We have not seen it, but others who have seen it have told us that it is also excellent!
