We place great emphases with the horizontal relationship and we try to do our best to keep those relationships in a healthy zone, but our vertical relationship must be kept up with as well.
A little blond hair, blue eyed girl named Linda runs to her daddy’s arms welcoming him home from yet another trip to Mexico to raise money for an orphanage. “Daddy, tell me the stories” she would yell as she climbed onto his lap. “Tell me the stories of how you helped the little children.” This scene plays out in my mind over and over as I discern my call to ministry. The ability to pinpoint any one event in my life that lead me to believe God was calling me into ministry is hard, if not impossible, to determine. In this paper, I will highlight a fraction of the occurrences happening throughout my life that I believe lead me to answer the call to ministry. Some of the events are large, while others are more insignificant to people other than myself.
Evangelism is a passion of mine and this semester has helped me to develop more as a person and strengthen my passion for evangelism. Usually when you hear the word Evangelism most of the time, you will start to fear because of rejection. During my Christian walk, sometimes I have experienced the fear of rejection as it relates to Evangelism. However, this semester has taught me not to fear." Evangelism is standing up for your faith even if everyone else remains seated 1(Earley and Wheeler

In their book The Great Commission to Worship: Biblical Principles for Worship-Based Evangelism, authors David Wheeler and Vernon Whaley contribute their respective expertise in evangelism and worship in an attempt to synthesize the two categories by showing each fundamental imperative of the Christian disciple to be integral to and an outflow of the other. The impetus for evangelism par excellence is the “great commission”
Evangelism is described as a three-way cord; building relationships, sharing the gospel, and introducing people to community. The authors encourage the Gospel and the Word to stay central, as well as community involvement and helping the needy in the name of Christ. There is a great emphasis on home groups (the authors are themselves home-group leaders), and how this practice makes church planting easier. The togetherness of this practice aids in ones spiritual growth because one cannot become holy on his
Ever since I was six years old, the year I was baptized, I have been on fire for the Lord. I attended a Christian school for eight years and have always been very involved at my church. My first experience outside of my “Christian bubble” was when I went to a public high school. For the first time in my life, I was out of my comfort zone. Being at a public school challenged my faith, strengthened my leadership skills, and forced me to branch out and meet people I would have never encountered otherwise. However, even though being at a public school helped strengthen my faith in ways I would have never guessed, I believe attending a Christian university—like Liberty—is the best choice to further my education. Going to college is new and exciting, but it can also be a demanding and intimidating experience. Being so far away from home, in a different environment,

To prepare churches for the challenges of pastoral searches, I recently introduced a fictitious congregation named “St. Barnabas Lutheran Church.” Readers provided a good deal of affirmation for the post, but they also wanted to know how to improve the call process. We go back to St. Barnabas today to start answering that question.
Some people may not be familiar with the true meaning of Christian counseling. Many may think it’s just the pastor giving advice concerning problems within their personal life. Christian counseling can be addressed this way: a discipleship created to assist people to become free to take part of God’s forgiveness, purpose, and power from on high to become sons of the living God (Hawkins & Clinton,2015). When people experience Christian counseling, they have an opportunity in expressing wholeness, spiritual maturity, relational competency, and a stability in intellect (Collins, 1993). Christian counselors desire is like a clergy to assist people with possessing their soul to trust and love God with all their hearts. Hawkins & Clinton (2015)
Randy Newman’s book, Questioning Evangelism, is a book about on how evangelizing is to ask questions, and therefore, letting people communicate with questions about their own truths about God. Newman writes this book hoping that anyone who reads it will gain a better understanding of what evangelism is. Newman’s book is divided into three parts: why questioning evangelism is needed, considering what questions non-believers are asking, and observing why asking questions and knowing answers doesn’t mean a Christian’s own problem like cold-heartedness or anger. Throughout the book Newman brings readers right back to bible scriptures. Even though he appeals to accounts of people like Paul in Acts preaching on Mars Hill, he also shows how the wisdom literature is applied to our evangelistic attempts.
Hi everyone and welcome to Com 200 Interpersonal Communication! I am Lisa and I currently reside in Elkton, VA for the last 25 years. I am from Adams, Ma, and I enrolled in Ashford University to obtain my BA in Business Administration in view to open a business of my own when I graduate. At the current time of enrollment it was in hospitality although, since then several different agents have approached me in the Insurance business. The owners asking me to take over their books and run the business when their agents retire around my area. It will require a few licenses; otherwise, I have looked into this position and have thought about this avenue as opportunity to take my degree in this direction as well. My motivation for returning
In the video first image of the evangelist holding the sign which said "we're right" struck a chord with me. I remember being in downtown Chicago and hearing and seeing people preaching on the street corners. Jesus is coming back! Get right! Sometimes speaking through megaphones. Most people including myself walked by them, ignored them only hearing only a few words of what was being said. I felt like I was being shouted at. I also like the video described a variety of evangelists from Baker to Dollar. They were are good examples of why some people might view evangelist in a dim light.
