Evangelism

Jesus Camp is the title of a documentary film that is about an evangelical Christian summer camp led by Becky Fisher. It depicts the lives of children, such as Rachael, Tory and Levi, who attend the camp in details. Most of these children homeschool because their parents disagree with the science education provided by the public schools; creationism is what the evangelical parents teach their children. They are also taught that global warming not a serious issue because it is just a political…

creates has a connection because of his design. And since a number of things are connected, it's as if Hopkins is giving his case that there is a creator because of this evidence. Evangelism is one of the main objectives of a follower of Christ, and since most Hopkins' poems reflect on Christ, he is doing his duty of evangelism through…

My Field education experience in my chosen area of Christian Education proved to be a valuable experience. I was afforded the opportunity to work within my church, Galilee United Church of Christ. Together with the pastor, lay leaders, and other members, we meet around the table to discuss the process for planning Christian Education classes. My pastor served in a supportive role as counselor/mentor on my behalf. Further, he gave me the lead on this project and furnished me with great insight on…

In this essay, I am going to describe and evaluate the strengths and weaknesses of engaging in missions using the lens of reason, with a brief overview of two other lenses: Tradition and experience. I will present ideas from the perspectives of my father, a missionary and my granduncle, the Right Reverend Datuk Bolly Lapok. Also I will share my experience of dealing with Attention Deficit Hyperactive Disorder (ADHD) and Depression through poetry and spoken word and how those platforms impacted…

H. Edward Pruitt starts 100 Years of Theological Convergence: Edinburgh 1910 to Lausanne 2010 with an introduction. In this introduction, he starts off with his thesis; “This thesis argues that a theological convergence developed out of the ecumenism that existed within the Edinburgh 1910 Global Missions Conference, and that this ecumenism grew from Edinburg 1910 until the Lausanne Movement that began in 1974, at which point it began to flourish” (Pruitt 5). He then defines some terms and lists…

God Does Exist God, the one and only being perfect in wisdom, power, all goodness and whom is worshipped as our creator and ultimate ruler of the universe. The most perfect being that can ever be conceived1. The same God that introduced evil, temptation and destruction to man. Could one being be the cause of all madness and mayhem? How is one meant to conceive that god only inflicts evil if he is intending to “bring good out of evil”2. With the influence and advancement of modern day technology…

In 2016, Bethany Baptist Church celebrates eighty-four years of ministry in the Highlands area of Louisville. The church’s peak membership of more than 1,100 people occurred in the 1970’s, during the ministry of the senior pastor with the longest tenure at Bethany—a tenure of twenty-four years. From 1986 to 2010, the church saw five senior pastors come and go, with an average pastoral tenure of less than four years. At the time of my call to serve as senior pastor in 2011, much work had…

In many of Paul's letters, Paul talks about that we are justified by grace through faith. In James' letter, he says faith without works is dead. At a glance, it looks like James is contradicting Paul, but further in and both are going to each other. The Word is inspired by God and is beneficial to us for teaching, correction, reproofing, and for training us in righteousness. We believe in its inspiration and then following; we believe the Bible is true and that there is no false teachings…

We didn’t design Cocoon with the intent of converting internet neo-nazis into socially conscious feminists, nor for the purpose of turning people who unironically call people “sjw’s” into the people they used to call “sjw’s.” This is no feminist evangelism; we’re not attempting to call sinners to repent of their casual racism at the altar of anti-oppression. Ultimately, this zine is not for them — this zine is for us. It’s for all my friends who never believed they were pretty enough because of…
