  • The Shepherd Leader
    "The Shepherd Leader" by Timothy Witmer is a book that strives to bring the importance of shepherding to the forefront of our thinking about what church leaders should do and, therefore, what they should be. Too many church leaders perceive of themselves as a “board of directors” when the Bible is clear that they are to know, feed, lead, and protect the flock entrusted to their care.
  • Learning Evangelism from Jesus
    Studying Jesus’ conversations with a diversity of people during his life, this director of the Francis Schaeffer Institute draws lessons and principles for modern evangelistic practice from the four Gospels, offering believers timeless wisdom in their approach to unbelievers.


  • This volume explains Edwards' strong sense of pastoral responsibility to warn his people of the reality and dangers of judgment and hell. But it also shows his equally vivid and compelling views of heaven and eternal life.


  • Bottom line: mankind has rejected God and His truth and suffers the consequences of that choice as God hands him over to enslavement by his own worldview with its resulting sins (1:24-32). It is no wonder people are disillusioned with life; sin and false beliefs ultimately have that affect. To this end this book is dedicated. We want to understand the opposition to having and living a biblical worldview, what steps we must take to implement the same in our churches, and then how to evangelize people from a biblical worldview framework.

 CRPC Small Group Bible Studies

Throughout the New Testament, the idea of community (or Koinonia) was accomplished by being involved in small group gatherings.  Jesus began His earthly ministry by establishing his small group with the 12 disciples.  In Acts 2, the first century church met in temple courts (corporate worship) and in house settings (small group).

At CRPC we have found that building community is essential and that small groups are a key resource in accomplishing this task. Small groups emphasize study, sharing, prayer, outreach and general support for one another in our growth in grace.

We strongly encourage your family to consider hosting, teaching or attending a small group.  The current list for 2011 Small Groups and leaders:

  1. Men 8:00am, 2nd/4th Thurs, Dave Bell, Walking With God
  2. Women 10:00am, 1st/3rd Thursday, Katie Irwin, Death, Heaven and Hell
  3. Mother's 9:30am, Monday, Christy Hope, The Pursuit of Holiness
  4. Adult 7:00pm, 1st/3rd Wednesday. Newville, Dave Bell, The Inner Sanctuary- An Exposition of John Ch 13-17
  5. Adult 7:00pm, 2nd/4th Thursday. In-town Carlisle, Al Steever/Norm McDonald, Hebrews
  6.  Adult 7:00pm, 2nd/4th Wednesday, Carlisle, Bill Kauffman, Prayer 
  7.  20/30s 7:00 pm, every other Tuesday, John Hope, Holiness of God  
  8. Youth 7th-12th, Wednesdays, Bruce & Karin Apgar
