Created April 23 for April 27, 2015...Training Material

Greetings on this April Monday morning.
                                                      
PERSONAL NOTE: I want to thank everyone who assisted in preparation for the Sunday worship service. Thank you everyone who offered your Faith Promise for the 2015 year of missions giving!!! We went over the $11,000 mark so far! Excellent!!!
 
LEADERSHIP APOLOGETICS: Click this LINK for our 12th apologetics short video. I believe there is much to learn for these nationally recognized Christian teachers and philosophers. Today's lesson is "The Resurrection".
             
TRAINING THE TEACHER: My intent here is to provide long-term biblical training for those who are in church work but may not feel adequately trained in the Bible and Christianity teaching in general. I want all of you to take this training (whether you teach or not) because it will better equip you to teach or live as a disciple of Christ. All of the material for this training is  coming to you by Biblical Training.org. I am linking you to their site for each of the lessons. You will be exposed to some of the finest Bible teachers in the country. You will receive Bible Institute level training. Our sixth session is one of 12 lessons (one each week). It is Lesson 7, "Who is Jesus?" from the module: Life is a Journey with Dr. Bill Mounce as teacher. Click this LINK for the video lesson. Visit their website and see that there are different levels for your involvement. By registering with them (free), you can have access to outlines, transcripts, etc. If you choose to do more than one lesson each week...go for it! Study at your pace!

HERE'S MY QUESTION: How do we know something is God's will? Click on this LINK . Check this out. Do a little research on the subject.
                                                             
GRADUATE STUDIES: Bibliology and Hermeneutics..."Inerrancy". This is Lesson 8 of 10. Click on this LINK . These are video lessons (they also have an audio version available on the same page). At the end of Dec. 2014, we started the Graduate Program over from the beginning. If you missed any lessons previously, get them this time around. This lesson will stretch you some by virtue of the subject.
                                                     
COUNSELING HELP: The category is Child Abuse. Click this LINK for the article, Reporting Child Abuse. Knowing what this says may be of help to you or someone else.
                                                   
LEADERSHIP QUOTE: "The measure of who we are is what we do with what we have." Vince Lombardi. Here is a humorous bonus by that great baseball player and philosopher, Yogi Berra, to lighten your day. Yogi said : "The other teams could make trouble for us if they win." Really, Yogi!
 
My desire for you this week is that you use what you have. 
In His Majesty's service, Pastor Darrell.
