I am working on a seminar for church called “Foundations”. The concept is teaching the basics (our foundations) of the Christian faith. The first seminar is starting in January and I thought I knew what I was going to start with (the seminar will have 4 different topics–covered in separate seminars over a year or more time) but after some prayer and thought about it I may be changing directions a little bit. So I want your opinions (I’m also meeting with my pastor this week and his opinion will obviously factor greatly in the decision). Here are all 4 topics:

1. Building Blocks of Christianity
2. Holy Habits (a.k.a. Spiritual Disciplines)
3. Famous Old Testament Stories
4. Famous New Testament Stories

I thought I was going to start with “The Building Blocks of Christianity” which will focus on the most important theological Christian concepts (such as The Virgin Birth, The Trinity, Second Coming, etc). However, I’m thinking maybe of starting with the “Holy Habits” seminar which focuses on spiritual disciplines (such as Prayer, Studying Scripture, Fasting, etc). Both are important, but I’m thinking perhaps starting off with the more personal side, versus the more academic, may be better??

Which would you be more interested in? Or which would you start with??

Don’t be shy…let your voice be heard!! And thanks in advance!
