Growth Track

Growth Track is CLM’s in-house structure we refer to as we encourage people to think about “How can I keep growing and developing?” It provides opportunities to take part in a number of different discipleship courses that we make available. Including life courses to help equip people in a more personal way, such as managing finances, parenting and the marriage course. Growth Track also covers our leadership training which we call “Serving and Leading” as part of our leadership development program. The idea is to keep training and equipping Jesus’ disciples, as well as encouraging people to take those next steps in their journey of faith.

Please see below for the range of Growth Track opportunities coming up this year…

Rooted

Rooted is a 10-week discipleship journey that connects people to God, the Church and their purpose. Whether you are new to faith or been a Christian for some time and simply want to grow, then this is for you.

Below is more information in relation to Rooted and how it has had an impact.

Originating from a church in Kenya and Mariners Church, USA, Rooted is a community experience, providing the opportunity to practice rhythms essential to a healthy relationship with Jesus through daily devotionals, prayer, freedom from strongholds, sacrificial generosity and more. It provokes questions and conversations and group experiences designed to give you a glimpse of your story in God’s story. Rooted helps you establish firm roots in the Truth of God’s Word through personal study (five devotions each week). Then after each week, you come together (with your assigned group) to discuss what you have been learning. Each group member will receive an amazing Rooted journal which will guide you through the weekly content and devotionals.

If you have any questions about the Rooted journey, or would like to find out more about discipleship opportunities at CLM, then please e-mail: jonathan@clmchurch.co.uk

Alpha Online

Alpha is a series of sessions exploring the Christian faith. Each talk looks at a different question around faith and is designed to create conversation. Alpha is run all around the globe, and everyone’s welcome. It can run in person and also online, in cafés, churches, universities, homes—you name it. No two Alphas look the same, but generally they have three key things in common: hospitality, a talk and good conversation. There’s no obligation to say anything and there’s nothing you can’t say (seriously). It’s an opportunity to hear from others and contribute your own perspective in an honest, friendly and open environment.

Typically ran over 11 weeks, the Alpha episodes are designed to engage and inspire conversation by looking at different questions around faith. Each episode is about thirty minutes long and unpack the basics of Christianity, addressing questions such as:

Who is Jesus?
How can we have faith?
How does God guide us?

We have recently launched Alpha in person 2023 and we look forward to running another Alpha in due course. Please keep a look out for upcoming dates.

Freedom in Christ

We are delighted to be running the Freedom in Christ course this Autumn. This is an exciting 10-week course that is not to be missed. It is designed to equip and make disciples through knowing their freedom and identity in Christ, and specifically using the Word of God to align participants to God’s truth. As well as a participant’s guide, a “Steps to Freedom” booklet is also provided as part of a special away day during the course.

Why not take a couple of minutes and hear from some of our congregation who have previously completed the course:
