C.D.T. (Christian Discipleship Training) is all about
helping kids learn the basic, powerful truths of the Christian faith and how to
apply them in their everyday lives. The first two years of study (usually 6th
and 7th grade) involve learning how to use and study the Bible. The third year
(usually 8th grade) is all about practical application. What does it look like
when a teenager believes this stuff? How will that work out at school, in the
mall, at parties, and with friends? C.D.T. is not something you graduate from
(although many of the students involved do decide to go through Confirmation, a
service in which they declare their personal commitment to Christ and the
Church). C.D.T. is something that prepares you for living out your faith in
Christ for the rest of your life. |
