Letter : A Log Email

On Monday, I went to the local Crossroads Baptist Church, located at 850 Edwards Ferry Rd NE, Leesburg, VA. This was my first time experience as I am Hindu and my parents never exposed me to any churches. Dr. Kenneth K. Baldwin was the pastor at the time I went. Luckily, I got the chance to speak with him after the service. After our brief conclusion, I realized that he had a great vision for his church and is leading it to success through his passion. I sensed his passion for preaching and religious beliefs as they were evident during the service. Despite this being my first visit to a church, I learned a lot of valuable things about churches and Christianity.

Ministry is more than just choosing a vocation for life; ministry calls the individual and beckons them to follow. At 53 years of age, I have taken a long journey to get to where I am today in ministry, yet I can say with all honesty, "I have not yet arrived." In describing the ingredients to a lasting ministry, Kevin Miller states, “A ‘call’ to ministry is not easily defined, but nothing could be more solid to most pastors. The call of God is

Recently the Lord led Lloyd & Pam to release the church they founded in 2001 in Charlotte, NC and pass the baton to their spiritual son & daughter as they both were launched

For 17 years God has blessed me to serve alongside my husband as directors of Chi Alpha at the University of Texas at Arlington. During my time here, I have served and mentored hundreds of young women and internationals who now fulfill the mission of Chi Alpha in the marketplace and the world as pastors, missionaries, police officers, nurses, teachers, and social workers. I am especially thankful to walk with those students who came to faith, experienced discipleship, and the Holy Spirit empowered their lives through the ministry.

First, we thank God for our Pastor’s inspiration and leadership. She has truly taught us what Christian fellowship is all about.

A very large part of our church leadership and established membership were adults that have supported this church since the fifties.

Pray for Rev. Lorenzo Collado, association president, as he ministers to pastors and churches in the United States. Pray for God’s wisdom as he leads the association.

It was Monday night. The praise and worship service was excellent! Pastor Mundell’s wife led it. I was surprised to see her husband stand when it was timed to preach. They called her Pastor Mundell as well. I had never heard him preach before, other than previews of him on television. He began talking about debt cancellation and being debt free. He got my attention right then and there. He wanted us to know that it was God’s will that we prosper. In Third John v.2, the Word says, “Beloved, I wish above all things that thou mayest prosper and be in health, even as thy soul prospereth.” As Pastor Mundell elaborated on that verse, he said, “We have to believe that God wants us to have it!”

After we sat down and chilled. The title was “Believe”. Jaden and I shook our heads as if you were saying yes and said ok in a confused voice. What the picture she put in our heads is that image if you were a tree you need to dig your roots in the soil so if a storm comes you can stay on to him if he was the soil. I took lots of notes about the sermon. The main key thing was about how we need to believe in him and trust in him when we are going through something rough times, and we need to take his hand and go through this journey with him instead of

Our goal for the group has been a success not because of the increase in the number of participants, but because of the individuals who have been empowered and how their lives have been changed. The result of our ministry is a generation of young people who instead of being lost in darkness, have found joy and a mission in

This course has had a great impact on my walk with Christ as well as my witness for Christ. I pastor a church and teach two classes and for me I thought that I was doing plenty. However this course has helped rekindle my passion for sharing Jesus Christ with people through personal evangelism. This paper will demonstrate what I have learned throughout this course.

In examining my experience during the recent Cohort Intensives held at Payne Theological Seminary (PTS) in Wilberforce, Ohio; I was quite intrigued with how all of the scholars and guest speakers reinforced many of the initiatives I have already implemented in the context of my own ministry. Likewise, my time spent in class with my Cohort mentors Bishop Vashti Murphy McKenzie and Rev. Dr. Kenneth S. Robinson was both scholastically and spiritually invaluable. During the week-long Intensive class sessions with my mentors, I learned a number of new things about myself that I was not previously willing to address. In short, I had a moment of self-actualization that required some personal omissions on my part regarding my faith and yes some internalized oppression as labeled by author Gayraud S. Wilmore. Opening up in class and admitting a few of my own short-comings was nothing short of liberating. Suddenly, I felt as though I had an epiphany; that has given birth to a renewed zeal, mind, and spirit. For the first time in years I am certain that I am now moving closer to the apex of excellence where God intended me to be.
