Multi-Generational Church Ministry
At Emmaus we believe that God has given parents, especially fathers the authority and responsibility to train and instruct children up in the Lord. In addition, we believe that God has ordained the gathering of all generations, young to old, to worship Him together in one place and at one time. Therefore, each and every Sunday our children worship the Lord alongside their parents and other members of God’s family.

- Why is it important to see the apostles, prophets, evangelists, shepherds, and teachers as Christ’s gift to the church?
- Why is it important to see that the work of shepherds and teachers (pastors) is to 1) equip or perfect the saints, 2) devote themselves to the work of ministry, and 3) build up the body of Christ? How does this view differ from the one that is common today (every member has a ministry)?
- Are there apostles and prophets in the church today? And connected to this, do miraculous gifts remain active in the church today?
- What are the members of the body of Christ to use their gifts for?
- Why is love the key ingredient?

- Why did some of the Jewish Christians who lived in the earliest days of the church struggle (emotionally, mentally, theologically) with the transition from the Old Covenant to the New Covenant?

- Peter says that Christ is both God’s precious and chosen cornerstone and a stone of stumbling and a rock of offense. How can one stone be these two different things to different people? What makes the difference?

- What does the word “church” mean?
- What is the foundation of God’s eternal temple-church? In what sense are the apostles and prophets a part of the foundation? Who are these apostles and prophets?
- Buildings depend on their foundations. In what sense does the true church, and all who are members of it, depend on Christ?
- Buildings must align with their foundations. In what sense must the true church, and all who are members of it, align with Christ?
