Our message is that we know the one who does.” Therefore, evangelism is displaying love for those whom Jesus loves, identifying with them, and pursuing them with the gospel. Furthermore, one’s message and ministry to the lost is not that which has the power to save them.…

    Once again, Clark H. Pinnock opens wide my eyes to the power of the Holy Spirit at work in the world through the church. He highlights the need for the church to be empowered by the Spirit in order to complete God’s mission. For example, Pinnock says, “Like Jesus, the church must live not out of its own resources but by the power of the indwelling Spirit, which breathes, strengthens, inspires and guides” (Pinnock 115). This is a huge reminder for me not to depend on the world’s ideas or even my personal talent to communicate the Gospel; but rather, allow the Spirit to work through me. Also, there is a temptation within churches; and even the church I lead, to get “butts in seats” through fancy tactics rather than having people filled with the…

    I do agree that as stated in “Maxim 5” in Chapter 11 of The Seven Laws of the Learner, that, “Equipping should focus more intensely on the most committed.” Wilkerson points out that, “One of the most crucial characteristics of equippers is that they carefully select the people they are going to equip. The Lord knew the apostles for a period of time before he selected them. Effective equippers focus their resources on the most faithful candidates who demonstrate the most promise for long-term and meaningful ministry for the Lord” (Wilkinson, 369). This is a slow building process that may take years to see to fruition.…

    After rereading Tina Housers’ book and identified which principles were my strengths and my weaknesses, I took the time to carefully think over and pray about these four principles. The principles in the book that I found to be strengths of mine included: laughs and participates as a team player. The two principles I found in the book that I need to improve on were; pointing others to Jesus and administrates meetings efficiently.

    We must nurture new disciples, as seen in Matthew 28:19-20. It is important to teach these individuals of why and how to relate the Bible as the revelation of God in matters of life, salvation, kingdom work and theology. This is vital to the new believers, because they must learn how they view God and his response to their lives; as well as to their response to the world. Through discipleship believers learn how to communicate God’s love to those who are lost and without love. They also learn how to convey God’s incarnational love to…
