Why take a PVI course?
Pleasant Valley Church is a place where people are experiencing new beginnings in Christ. People, young and old, experiencing the great blessing of salvation. This is just the beginning. God desires all His Children to grow spiritually toward maturity and be equipped to live significant and fruitful lives.
Spiritual maturity involves progressive change in three key areas of our lives:
Character: Our Heart—Becoming progressively more like Christ in our attitudes and actions.
Knowledge: Our Head—Grasping the major themes of Scripture and forging an understanding of faith and life based on Scripture.
Skill: Our Hands—Developing our gifts and skills and employing them for ministry in the church and world for the purpose of bringing glory to God.
PVI exists to encourage growth in these vital areas in people’s lives. It is primarily a teaching and equipping ministry. Various topics and issues will be offered in one of three different formats:
Weekly classes
Seminars
Conferences
