    The Ministry Of Signs And Wonders

    Contributed by Dr. Craig Nelson on Apr 8, 2019
    based on 5 ratings
     | 17,142 views

    Jesus said the supernatural Signs and Wonders are to “accompany those who believe” (Mark 16:17a NIV), and they should be fully understood by every Christian that they are to accompany them wherever they are.

    Many within the church believe that after the Apostles died and their writings were collected in the New Testament, the place of Signs and Wonders in evangelism has passed, and Christians should not pursue them today. This does not mean miracles don't happen. It just says they are not the ...read more

    Sharing Ministry Together

    Contributed by D. Dewaine Phillips on May 13, 2021

     | 5,830 views

    When the volunteer workload is placed on the shoulders of just a handful of people, then these individuals get burnt out; and since they can’t do everything, then a lot of needs go unmet. Ministry is something to be shared among all believers.

    I wish to begin our message by sharing a personal account contributed by a pastor who was serving at a church in Washington State during the wake of the Mount St. Hellens eruption. This pastor said, After Mount St. Helens blew up in May 1980, [the] church needed cleaning up. Ash was in the ...read more

    This message on ‘hard work, sacrifice and suffering’ may be hackneyed for this smartphone-era of pomp and opulence Christian ministry, nevertheless, hear me today, builders cannot take rest.....

    Dawn, noon & moon Nehemiah 4:21”…So we carried on the work with half of them holding spears from dawn until the stars appeared.” This message is not for all but only for people serving in the Christian ministry as pastors, preachers, leaders, care cell leaders, worship leaders, Evangelists, ...read more

    Her name was Antoinette Brown and she would become a part of history. Antoinette was a committed abolitionist, a campaigner for temperance, and an advocate for women’s rights.

    Ministry – preaching & teaching – of the word of God is one of the integral parts of Christian services. But what do we achieve with this? What is the purpose behind the preaching or sharing of the word of God?

     | 6,283 views

    Sometimes we need to take a fresh look at long held or cherished traditions and teachings.

    Having been raised somewhat in the Methodist church and my wife in a Lutheran background being saved was not in our vernacular as neither one of us ever heard that concept. Both of us thought being baptized as a child was all we needed. That is sad since I learned about both Wesley and ...read more

    There is suffering as a consequence of sin AND of doing good. Understanding helps ministering to the hurting around us.

    Mid-week Message/Devotion February 21, 2018 Reading: 1 Peter 3:18-22 Focus on the Ministry NOT the Suffering The first thing that came to mind, as I was reading 1 Peter 3:18-22 was that Jesus could very well have coined that phrase “No good deed goes unpunished”. Jesus did so much good for ...read more

    A Poverty Mindset Of Ministry

    Contributed by Dr. Madana Kumar, Phd on Feb 26, 2018
    based on 3 ratings
     | 17,579 views

    We all have a tendency to focus on what we do not have and hence what we cannot do. But the God who gave us life knows what we do not have. He is interested in what we do with what we have. Can we turn our attention to that?

    We all have heard about the prosperity gospel and none of us sitting here actually like it. Well mostly. I might want to take a look at it if I can get my hands on that BMW next week, because of something the prosperity gospel promises. Right? Jokes apart, we do realise that prosperity gospel is a ...read more

    Pride & prejudice ruled in the Church at Corinth. Church members were using the wrong standards and motivated by pride in their relationships ot church leaders. What is the proper attitude toward spiritual leaders?

    Most of you are likely familiar with the novel Pride and Prejudice and the movie that resulted from it. I don't know much about it other than that has been on my TV more than any other single movie; it's my wife's favorite movie and it probably qualifies as a chick flick. I believe ...read more
