cat·a·lyst: an agent that provokes or speeds significant change or action
It is our conviction that discipleship takes place primarily through the context of the local church. Catalysts for Catawba are transformative equipping seminars designed to explore an aspect of theology through the lens of a relevant issue facing the church today.
Catalysts are designed with a purpose of encouraging followers of Christ to effectively connect the dots between core doctrines of Christianity to aspects of everyday life. Catalysts are structured in such a way as to expose individuals to a broader understanding of the Bible and theology, to equip individuals for practical Christian living, and to evoke a desire for deeper personal study in that area of theology.
