    At Justified By Faith Baptist Church in Indianapolis, IN, I, Daniel H. Weems, Sr. serve as an Associate Pastor. We are a new church plant about seventeen months old and have around fifty active members. I have been asked to organize and implement a soul care ministry within the church. My overarching goal for ministry is to restore my fellow man when he is overtaken in a fault (Gal. 6:1), fully knowing that all mankind have missed the mark at times (Rom. 3:23); I do my best to remind…

    This mission reminds us that for the Kingdom of God to continue to break in, individual lives need to be changed, while being motivated and equipped for transformation. Our Book of Discipline offers this cue: “God has used our church to save persons, heal relationships, transform social structures, and spread scriptural holiness, thereby changing the world.” When we change lives and introduce people to the all-loving nature of God, we indeed transform the world. When making disciples, the Church welcomes people into community, educates them on God’s call for Christians, and equips them toward using their spiritual gifts to serve as change agents playing a role in bringing about the Kingdom of…

    Council Meeting

    I would like to start this report off by saying that I have never been to city council meeting before, even though my father was the mayor, and still serves on city council back in my home town of Kingsford, Michigan. I found this experience both interesting and exhausting to see and understand the scope of the council’s role and responsibilities in keeping this city running. All members of council must have to have a very extensive education and background in finance and public administration even in mid-sized city like Colorado Springs. I couldn’t imagine the business required in a major metropolitan city.…

    Jesus said Luke 4:18–19 “The Spirit of the Lord is upon me, because He has anointed me to preach the gospel to the poor. He has sent me to proclaim release to the captives, and recovery of sight to the blind, to set free those who are oppressed, to proclaim the favorable year of the Lord (NASB).” Because of our love, a healthy church will minister to those who cannot repay.…

    Paul’s suggested method for reaching people with the gospel was remarkably different. He tried to understand the customs and practices of those he hoped to influence, becoming like the people he wanted to reach. “I have become all things to all men so that by all possible means I might save some” (1 Cor. 9:22). Paul went to them-the essence of the idea of mission-but today the multicultural climate has brought the ethnic and cultural mix to us. Differing forms of worship, ritual practices, rites of passage and even religious attire are no longer the stories of foreign lands and mission fields; they are part of the multicultural community. To apply Paul’s principle today, we must learn as much as possible about the culture of our neighbors in order to live alongside them and present the gospel. Debate rages today about how to do this without falling into relativism on the one hand or exclusivism on the other. The values, the worldview and the religious belief of my neighbor may include ways to salvation outside of Christ.…

    Theology of Missions

    • 2325 Words
    • 10 Pages

    The Bible chronicles mans fall from what God created him to be, and God’s desire to restore a sinful man unto Himself through missions. Even though man was originally made perfectly in the image of God, man would eventually succumb to his free will and his own selfish desires. Once man allowed evil into his heart, fellowship with God was broken, along with His heart. Through His sovereign grace and mercy, God seeks to restore order to His earthly kingdom. We find God’s plan and outline in the pages of His word as He makes a way for man to be redeemed from the chains of sin. The awesomeness of the situation is that God allows us to be part of the mission to reach out and share the Gospel to a lost and dying world. Ultimately, the mission of God finds its fulfillment in man’s worship and service to God in His kingdom.…

    Christian Gospel

    • 538 Words
    • 3 Pages

    (1) The Christian Gospel is perceived in various ways within our culture. One way the Christian gospel is perceived is through the use of religion as a way for people to do good in order to obtain happiness and rewards. This interpretation of the Christian gospel encourages people to think more about the gifts of works, than the salvation of God. Through this people see a list of rules that they have to follow in order to be Christian. The Christian Gospel is also used as a way to repent for one’s sins in order to be saved. Through belief, the Christian Gospel is perceived as something to build faith and trust in, for “If Christ is not risen, your faith is futile; and your are still in your sins!” (Corinthians 15:17).…

    DEC Conference Analysis

    In this paper I will analyze three different presentations that I found interesting during the attendance of the DEC conference. The first presentation refers to the family involvement and collaboration between families and educators to enhance children’s development. The second one presents music interventions as a mean of support of self-regulation, social communication and early literacy. The third points out culturally responsive recommended practices to support hybrid families in the 21st century. The main reason that I chose to present these specific ideas is that I would like to implement in my work with students and families some of the presented practices and suggestions.…

    “In the same way, let your light shine before others, so that they may see your good works and give glory to your Father who is in heaven” Matthew 5:16 (Dake’s Annontated Reference Bible). Helping others is the most important thing that anyone can do and it does not matter how much you have you should share what you have with others. “Doing the Most Good” is the Salvation Army’s slogan because they want to help people in their time of need while sharing the Christian gospel. The Salvation Army is a Christian based organization that is looking to help as many people as they can. Their Christian beliefs are the reason why I choose their organization to volunteer to help them and learn more about their organization. This paper will talk about…

    This world, the earth, seems crazy at times to me. We hear about Christians being persecuted, tortured and/or killed for their faith in God. Most of these occurrences happen in other countries but the United States is not free from persecution of Christians. Christians in the United States are even bullied by people like atheist Richard Dawkins who believes that Christians should be mocked and belittled for believing in God. This scares me sometimes because I am a Christian and I believe people should treat each other with kindness. I definitely don’t want people to mock and belittle me or other Christians. However, I know God wants us to spread his good news even when we are scared. Jesus tells us in 2 Timothy 4:2 to, “Preach the word; be prepared in season and out of season; correct, rebuke and encourage—with great patience and careful instruction” (New International Version). This paper is to address how I plan on spreading God’s good new as a nurse…

    Spiritual Conversation

    • 586 Words
    • 3 Pages

    Regrettably, many Christians force the issue of the gospel on those who are not ready and are accused of being too focused (Kinnaman & Lyons, 2007). Therefore, The Gospel of Peace is the footwear that directs the Christian to the right people, to the right places, and to the right times to share the gospel. Hence, The Gospel of Peace prevents the Christian from being too focused. With the decay of society, many Christians face increased persecution and ridicule. As a result, Christians become too sheltered (Kinnaman & Lyons, 2007). The Shield of Faith allows the Christian to venture into enemy territory to boldly proclaim the gospel. However, Christians can expect a counter attack that manifests through fear, worry, defeat, and doubt. The Shield of Faith overcomes fear and the barrier of being too sheltered and thereby allows the Christian to venture into enemy…
