Courses available in Semester 1, 2008
| Leading People to Christ (LPC) |
This foundational Course aims to help Christians to be more effective in leading their friends to Christ with integrity, courage and Biblical faithfulness. It will not only give you something to say but develop a framework for answering questions, raising the Christian faith naturally and praying about your friends. LPC is a great place to begin the Equip course program.

| Growing People in Christ (GPC) |
This course aims to teach Christians how to disciple people into a mature faith, following on from LPC. A great course especially if you are small group leading this year
