Welcome to Minister’s Training!
Greeting LFCC Leaders,
Welcome to Minister’s Training! As discussed at the previous leadership meeting, we will begin weekly, interactive training. We will be using portions of the book Through the Bible in One Year by Dr. Alan Stringfellow and Called and Accountable by Henry C. and Norman T. Blackaby.
From September through December we will be going through an introduction to the Bible book by book. Instead of using a group email like discussed at the meeting, we will utilize a blog on the church’s website. The blog can be found under the Devotional tab at the top of the home page. The blog requires a password, the password is “wetrain”.
On Mondays (Tuesday this week as Monday is a holiday) I will post a discussion starter on the blog in relation to the packet that I will provide weekly. You will have until Sunday to post an initial comment on the blog post. I am encouraging you to be thoughtful, open, and honest about what your thoughts concerning the week’s material, and interact with each other regarding the material. For example, on September 3rd I will post a blog opening up discussion on the material you received at the leadership meeting. Then, by Sunday, 9/8, you should comment, at least once, on the post with your thoughts regarding the material. Additionally, please feel free to respond to someone else’s comment.
If you plan on buying or have purchased the book by Dr. Stringfellow and or Blackaby please let me know. This will help me to know how many copies I need to make and also what I can use and make reference to.
If you have any questions regarding how to use the blog please reach out to MIT Allie by phone at (757)871-0850 or by email at wbfmanage@gmail.com. She will be able to answer any questions you have about the technology side of the training.
I am excited about how God will use this training to sharpen each of us.
Blessing and love,
Pastor Matisha
Thank you so much for this upcoming studying . I am challenged in so many areas when it comes to reading, writing anything on paper, and studying. I get so overwhelmed by reading because so many things pop up in my head like visions, revelations, and thoughts that i get so overwhelmed. I feel like i am about to burst with what i sew in what i have read.
This step by step will help me to understand, to embrace, to comprehend, what we will be studying. I know i will not feel alone in this.
I look forward to what God has for me in these challenging areas of my calling.
Good evening LFCC leadership family! I am both excited to start this training, and quite apprehensive as I know it will grow me beyond where I currently am.
