Poiema: Student Workbook II: Created to Reflect Christ Together

By Wheaton Press

This workbook is the second in a series of two student workbooks that coincide with the 300 level Poiema course. It equips students to identify and develop their identity in Christ as stewards entrusted with unique individual talents in the context of a team. The Apostle Paul notes "we are God's Poiema (his workmanship) created in Christ Jesus to do good works, which he prepared in advance for us to do (Ephesians 2:10). The course gives students the tools to discover, explore and practice their God-given talents. Through the material, students will acquire foundational principles, knowledge, and understanding for further growth; preparing them to steward their talents as reflections of Christ in their circles of influence. What students are saying . . . Before taking this class, I wasn't even sure that that I had talents, much less what they were! But through taking the class, I have had the privilege of learning my talents so I have a better idea of what God has gifted me with, and what His plan is for me. I can only be who God has uniquely created to be, no matter how hard I try, there are things that I will never be good at or understand. That whole concept of breaking myths with the truth has been more than eye opening it was freeing. God has put so much care and purpose in making every person. No two people have been gifted by God in the same way. I have learned that I am special and that God has a purpose for me and made me specifically for that purpose. The one big idea that I have taken from the first part of class was the whole idea of being "okay" with who God made me to be.
