THE TRUE MINISTRY (NEW THIRD SERIES) 05: THE MINISTRY OF THE LOCAL CHURCH Part 5 (taken from the September Green Gospel Assembly Area Ministers Meeting):

THE MINISTRY OF THE LOCAL CHURCH Part 5 (taken from the September Green Gospel Assembly Area Ministers Meeting):

Stages of development in the ministry from the laity to higher levels of leadership, General guidelines for praying for and visiting those of the opposite gender, and other issues 

CAUTIONARY NOTE: This ongoing series of classes on the ministry is NOT intended to address the general ministry of the body of churches we are part of but, rather, to educate and aid those ministers here and abroad that I personally am responsible for. Doing so may require addressing somewhat controversial issues, but only as such are necessary to make clear my position on these issues to those I am responsible for. We have made this public (and not password protected) for several reasons, one being that there are ministers outside of our body of churches who may hear these messages and may consider their ways. That has been the case with other materials we have made public; we have had individuals who listened to them who reached out to us and became a part of what we are doing because of a conviction they felt hearing those messages or reading those materials. I also wanted my position on these issues to be transparent and available to those who love the ministry and its work.
