Missionaries

“What does Missionary Discipleship mean to you in light of your ordination?” For me, missionary discipleship means three main things: to be called, to be formed, and to be sent. God always calls his people for the mission to announce the Good News and his call needs an answer from the bottom of the heart. It is a personal invitation from Christ who calls each of us by our own name and we follow Him because we recognize His voice. The Sacred Scripture talks about some examples of calling. One

A missionary is an ambassador of Christ. Each must be yielded to the Lord, loving Him with all the heart, soul, mind, and strength. Specifically, a missionary is one whom God sends through the support of the Church to the unreached. All Christians, however, are called to be missionaries of the Gospel. The Lord works through them to rescue the lost and hurting in this world. The lifestyle is definitely not easy and is very extreme at times. Christianity is synonymous with a life of extreme danger

Missionaries have had a profound and resounding effect on southeastern Nigeria that remains today, missionaries still playing a significant role in the culture of the Igbo. Although missionaries were initially synonymous with colonization, European coloniasts enforcing Christian ideals on the ‘save’ natives in an effort to civilize them, missionaries remained in Nigeria even after it gained its independence on October 1, 1960 through a series of constitutions legislated by the British government

Many people have dedicated their lives as missionaries in foreign lands. There are two basic categories of missionaries: pioneer and settler. Both types are of equal worth to the cause of the gospel. The three main areas I’d like to address in this essay are pioneer missionaries, settler missionaries, and how they are similar. First, pioneer missionaries such as the famous David Livingstone, pave the way for settler missionaries by planting the precious seeds of the gospel in the hearts of the

In the 1820’s Missionaries have been starting to visit Hawaii inspired by Henry Obookiah who the first Hawaiian Missionary. Henry Obookiah was a Hawaiian missionary that told the English about the Hawaiian religion and how it works, and it convinced the English to go and spread their religion. But not everything ended well according to the plan for the Hawaiians. People only notice the negative effects that the missionaries cause the Hawaiians to go through, but they miss the benefits that the missionaries

Christian missionaries and the clansmen and women is demonstrated. Throughout the novel, Achebe illustrates these differences in order to bring light to the ways of the clan so that those who are reading can understand them better. The clans worship a multitude of gods, and believe that the gods control everything, from the harvest, to the weather. The first major differences between the missionaries and clans is their belief systems, which have major impacts on how they rule. The missionaries are obviously

Bonjou! I would like to thank you so much for supporting me on my third trip to Haiti! This trip was such an amazing experience and incredible opportunity to serve; it flew by way too fast! It’s sad coming to the realization that my trip is over, but also so amazing looking back at all of my pictures! (All 2,421 of them! phew!) I would love to share with you what we did there, and how it turned out completely different and way better than anyone on my team could have imagined. When we arrived

Social groups describe who we are as individuals. Every person is involved in multiple social groups whether they realize it or not. Some social groups can be determined by a broad spectrum or a narrow spectrum. Social groups can be spread out throughout different regions as well as an entire nation as a whole. Every person who attends North Carolina State University is part of the same social group. That social group can be broken down into many smaller groups, such as the individual colleges

Church, temple, sanctuary, or the Lords’s house, these are just a few names that your average person might call the place you come to worship God, I have always called it home. The Church I have been attending, Memorial Baptist Church, which is also where I attend high school, I have been attending since I was the age of three years old. Moving to the area that my family lives in now, I do not believe is any accident. At the age of two years old, my father was stationed in Tennessee for the military

Both articles are about the Innovated Church and Discipleship. The meaning of discipleship is found in Luke 9:23 when Jesus said “Then he said to them al: Whoever wants to be my disciple must deny themselves and take up their cross daily, and follow me” (NIV). Jesus called men into discipleship and completed His mission with disciples.
