There are reasons why this statement is to be considered as valid, and Comiskey notes that in understanding of the Trinity, Trinitarian doctrine indicates that the emphasis in on “life, love and movement within the Godhead.” Thomas F. Torrance writes concerning the Trinity that this doctrine is “foundational to Christianity, defines who we worship and serve, while guiding the church to practice love, care and unity.” If one studies the Trinitarian nature of God, what they will find is a relational aspect unfounded in a singular view of self. If as Scripture states that “The Son loves the Father and the Father loves the Son” (Jn. 3:35-36; cf. 5:20), then it stands to reason that God loves those (humankind)...

The first reference to the Godhead being comprised of more than one is Gen. 1:26 where the plural ‘us’ is used; thereafter it is used multiple times. The triune nature of God reveals the foundation of his image being created in humanity with relational...

...Liberty Baptist Theological Seminary Analysis Paper 1 Submitted to Dr. Rod Dempsey In Partial Fulfillment Of the Requirements for the Course Small Group Ministries DSMN 630-D01 By Erica Shelton March 30, 2014 Small groups are the proper environment to develop and grow disciples of Jesus. The purpose of a small group is to develop sacrificial, relational, transformed people who can continue the cycle of disciple development. Small groups must be intentional, individual and missional. There are five primary passages that can be used to form a small group ministry philosophy. Each of these passages have accompanying principles that we can apply to our small group ministries. Primary passages that form a small group ministry and the principles that are derived 1. The Great Commandment In Matthew 22:36-40, Jesus was challenged by one of the Pharisees: “Teacher, which is the greatest commandment in the Law?” Jesus replied: “‘Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind.’ This is the first and greatest commandment. And the second is like it: ‘Love your neighbor as yourself.’ All the Law and the Prophets hang on these two commandments.” We show our love for God through worship, giving, putting him first. We show our love for others by caring and giving to the ‘neighbors’ in our spheres of influence. A small group is the best place to pull people into a circle where they can love God and others together...

...WORSHIP IN A HEALTH-CARE SETTING.......................4-6 CONCLUSION................................................................................................................................6 BIBLOGRAPHY.............................................................................................................................7 INTRODUCTION The ministry of worship and preaching of chaplains is unique in the sense that they are tasked with providing for the religious needs of different people and in a pluralistic environment. Although this type of setting provides many challenges, chaplains are afforded abundant ministry opportunities. This paper first will attempt to describe the opportunities, advantages, and disadvantages of technology in the area of worship and preaching for chaplains. Secondly, this paper will describe the role and functions of chaplains in the healthcare setting when providing worship services. This paper will show that when properly used technology can become a tool that will enhance, promote, and advance the ministry of worship and preaching in the chaplaincy ministry. The Chaplain and the Use of technology in Worship When considering the use of technology such as multimedia, the chaplain has to consider whether the use of such technology will ultimately enhance, fortify, or detrimentally affect the worship service. The question is how technology can be better employed, in order to become a means thru...

...Rock Church & World Outreach Center (ROWOC). God has taught this once exceptionally small group of people to be a Christian church. God told the Pastors to come to a city that was full of sin, pain, in need of the Almighty Savior and filled with poverty. “Pastors Jim and Deborah Cobra had just started the church with a small group of people, and the Lord was already bringing in the broken-hearted, the sick and the maimed” (The Rock Church, 2013). With the promise from Isaiah 12:3, “With joy you will draw water from the wells of salvation”, The Rock Church begins a life-long difference in a broken city. Then after many years, a mother and her son with Down syndrome named “Brian” came to service. The church was developing and expanding its structures at the time. The Pastor was preaching about how the members could help by donations to pay off the upgraded church. Pledges were being made, and Brian was only a young child at the time. He wanted to pledge. He wanted to get involved. His mother was astounded by Brian’s need to be involved. At first, the mother did not think of Brian being able to determine his involvement in the pledge; however she did not want to confuse the love of the Lord that Brian was clearly showing. She did not think it was possible for him to get, but she quickly learned she was wrong. This is when RCWOC decided to make a fully inclusive children’s youth ministry program, and they named it after Brian. RCWOC is dedicated in meeting the needs of...

However, in order to impact the lives of Christians, such development is a vital part of expediting the growth of within the family of faith. The Christian church is established based upon the five founding principles (evangelism, education, fellowship, service and worship) and the curriculum that is chosen by the church should accurately reflect these principles. Today more than ever the mandate given to us by Jesus the Christ, which calls for us to continue not only educating ourselves but educating others, is a challenge. Of the five founding principles, education may be the hardest principle to fully implement. Throughout history the method of teaching parishioners has changed. From teaching and learning extensively...

These changes I will draw your attention to will be for the growth of the church and uplifting of the kingdom work. I know that everybody will not see the change in the present stage but the future will prove itself. One of the first strategy I would using in making changes in the church I would implement a survey with all the volunteer and group leaders, and mistrial staff. Upon receiving their feedback I would do a survey with the congration and the community. In changing you must consider individual difference in age group cultural. I would have a group of brainstorming committee. I would systematically collect fresh idea, look for creativity thinking people to remove themselves from traditional thinking. I decide a survey this week in since this paper is on implement changes. I was at one of the group meeting I belong to. I made a suggest to implement some new teacher for basic training for the church. I received a loud amen from member setting in the back of the church. Another member older in her late seventy you would thought I said the world coming to an end. I could had went into more detailed how the training would enhance the church but I want to see a respond to the suggestion to a change.

...Reflection Paper for Introduction to Christian Thought Theology 104 Xxxxxx Xxxxxxx L33333333 March 5, 2012 Liberty University I. Introduction To say, “I am a Christian” has so many meanings in this day and age. To most people it means that they believe that Jesus is the Son of God and that He died for their sins. To a true Christian it means the aforesaid statement as well as the desire to know God through a personal relationship. The most crucial part of being a Christian is to nurture and cultivate that special bond with God and use one’s personal testimony to further the acceptance of Christ by as many people as possible. In order to communicate effectively, one must know that Jesus is God and be able to convey how He is working their lives. One can use his/her God-given skillsets in many different facets to promote His purpose through the church and the community. Upon one’s earthly demise, the ultimate goal is to hear, “Well done, my faithful and loyal servant” (Matthew 23:23). II. Did Jesus claim to be God? Jesus claims to be God numerous times within the Bible. Jesus referred to Himself as “I AM” in multiple verses in scripture as well as key quotes, such as, “I am the bread of life” (John 6:35) and “I am the light of the world” (John 8:12). For people to understand that Jesus is God, one has to recognize why God would come to this earth in human form. In the Old...

...CEO's Position Christine M. Thomas ACC/260 5/18/2014 Donna Adams CEO's Position The Kardell Paper Company has been presented with a situation to be taken under advisement. It has been brought to my attention by Mr. Green and a report he has prepared regarding their testing of the water quality of the Cherokee River in and around the plant. The tests have shown high readings of the industrial chemical Sonox near the plant’s discharge pipe and small trace amounts of the chemical farther away and on the opposite side of the shore from the plant. In recent years Kardell has begun using this chemical in the manufacturing of a line of bleached Kraft paper (Brooks, 2007). Along with Mr. Green’s report and impact statement from parties concerned; Kardell Employees Union Representives, Kardell Investors, City of Riverside and its citizens, and Kardell’s Legal Counsel. I will be analizing each groups concerns and present my final decision. The impact statement from the Kardell Employee Union Representatives bring the following concerns; the plant’s part in the discharge of the chemical Sonox into the river water, is Kardell complying with all government environmental regulations, worries with regards to the rising health conditions in the community with possible connections to Sonox, feel further testing on the effects of Sonox, possible alternatives to the retro fit proposal to prevent layoffs that would have a devastating impact on the communities economy.

...Hannah Smith CHMN 201-[D06] 4/20/15 Church Leadership and Ministry Evaluation Paper For this paper, I did a self-evaluation. 1. Would you say that your congregation (or the people within your particular department or area of ministry) is “Living Out the Mind of Christ” (i.e. Unity, Humility, Selflessness) as they interact, serve, and minister to/with each other? How specifically do you as a ministry leader teach, cultivate, and maintain “The Mind of Christ” in your area of ministry? My area of ministry ranges from grades 6-12. At these young ages, students are still trying to find themselves. As they do so, they crave and desire a relationship with God. My team and I are very dedicated to teaching them that they are all united as one, and God loves each of them individually. This unity will hopefully teach them that they can lean on fellow believers their age and grow spiritually together. 2. Would you consider yourself a “Wounded Healer?” Also, would you please share an example where you have ministered to a person who is/was “wounded” in the same manner that you once were? (Cf. II Corinthians 1:3-5) Yes, I consider myself a wounded healer. I went through a physically and emotionally abusive relationship about three years ago. In going through this, I learned to find my self worth in God before I looked to others. I have been able to use my story to capture many girls in toxic relationships. One in particular was a girl my own age. She had been dating a guy...

My current status has been encouraging, as we have shifted from being a reactive ministry to a proactive ministry. At this time I am presently in my 10th year as pastor of a church in an urban area of Brooklyn, N.Y, My first 8 years very little in the way of discipleship was accomplished as our building was old and the congregation was already small and began diminishing though relocation and death. Our efforts at discipleship were further hampered after in my 3rd year we experienced a major collapse in part of our building. Over the next 5 years the concentration of the church was on our building. Every bit...

...WP/04/01 Bank of Uganda Working Paper Recognising the Role of Micro Finance Institutions in Uganda Justine Nannyonjo and James Nsubuga _________________________________ Bank of Uganda 2 WP/04/01 BOU Working PAPER Research Department Recognising the Role of Micro Finance Institutions in Uganda By Justine Nannyonjo and James Nsubuga February 2004 Abstract This paper shows that micro finance is an important part of the growth strategy in Uganda and has in the recent years gained increasing recognition. This is evidenced by initiatives and strong commitment by government, donors and practitioners towards supporting micro finance activities in Uganda, and the rapid expansion of the micro finance industry. Integration of Micro Finance Institutions (MFIs) into the formal financial system has been established, while measures have been taken to build capacity and enhance coordination in the micro finance industry, as well as expand the outreach of sustainable micro finance. The paper, however, identifies a number of challenges to the development of the micro finance industry: There is need to strengthen the capacity of MFIs to build their management information systems, and to rebuild infrastructure in underserved areas as well as strengthen capacity for identifying potential market structures, which could serve as the basis on which to build sustainable micro finance services. Other challenges include restoring peace in conflict areas and strengthening...
