D Personal Life Plan (PLP) Training
Frazer’s mission plan is to worship, win, disciple, and
serve. This is our plan for fulfilling the Great Commission,
Jesus’ mandate to make disciples. We believe that whenever
the church has a clear sense of mission, God uses the church
to change the world. To change the world every member
must embrace the mission and be intentionally developed to
engage fully in that mission. The Personal Life Plan (PLP) is the
foundation of our spiritual formation process which ensures
that every believer can purposefully develop a life that glorifies
God through worshiping, winning, discipling, and serving.

M Crazy Love by Francis Chan
Does something deep inside your heart long to break
free from status quo? Are you hungry for an authentic faith that
addresses the problems of the world with tangible, even radical,
solutions? God is calling you to a passionate love relationship
with Himself. Because the answer to religious complacency isn’t
working harder at a list of do’s and don’ts – it’s falling in love
with God. And once you encounter His love as Francis describes
it, you will never be the same. Each session will begin by Barry
Carpenter lecturing for about 20 minutes and then the men
will spend the rest of the time sharing their thoughts and ideas
concerning the topics of the book. The sharing time allows the
men to grow together as friends and to explore their thoughts
about God in their lives. The cost of the book is around $10 and
will be available in the Frazer bookstore beginning in September.
