Discipleship Training

What you'll find on each page:
  BIBLICAL MOTIVATION The key to anything we do is to have good, solid Biblical motivations that are born from God's Word.  Every aspect of our training will begin with a Scriptural motivation.
  GETTING LAUNCHED With each aspect of Training, the first challenge is to get launched.  We must figure out how to get started and gain some early momentum and experience initial success.  A correlation is "primary education" that lays a foundation.
  CONTINUING FURTHER Now that we've taken off, we want to experience sustained flight by going further in a particular aspect of training.
Continuing the correlation, this is "secondary education" that takes us further and deeper in a particular discipline. This is key to mastering the Training.
  FURTHER STUDY Many times, as you master a particular aspect of Training, you will want to dig deeper into God's Word to learn more and to truly appropriate the aspect of training. This normally involves a comprehensive time of Bible study and meditation/time of reflection. Think of this as "graduate education."
Welcome to the CMF Training Web Page. CMF is committed to helping fulfill the Great Commission by helping military people minister to other military folks.  The Great American military man or woman is the ideal person to reach other Great Americans in the Armed Forces for Jesus Christ!
