Online newsletter informing you of updates to
the Ministry Tools Resource Center's site
February 2012
Dear Fellow Servants,
Ministry Tools Resource Center is about equipping believers for ministry. In these newsletters I could merely list new training and resources on the site. This month I would be able to tell you about the following. Click on the links below to benefit from this material.
Be-Attitude: Be Concerned
Discipline Tip: Group of Students Stick Together & Cause Trouble
Teaching Method: Work Group
But, rather than simply list this material, I feel compelled to embed it in some encouraging and/or challenging words. Why? Your spiritual growth matters!
"How-to" training and tips are only a part of the equipping process. Our walk with the Lord is critical to serving and so we need to be growing closer to Him and more like Him. For that to happen, pursuit of spiritual growth needs to be:
Grace-saturated (Titus 2:11-12; 2 Pet. 3:18)
Relationally pursued (Eph. 4:16)
Ongoing (Col. 1:6; 2 Thess. 1:3)
Well-rounded (Eph. 4:15)
Truth-based (Col. 1:10)
Holy Spirit empowered (Gal. 3:3; Eph. 1:17)
May you take steps toward a closer and stronger walk with Him. And, may you be used of God to build others up as well.
Check out the new teacher training PowerPoint and worksheets to help Bible teachers promote spiritual growth within their students. -- The Teacher's Role in Discipling Students Toward Spiritual Growth.
Spiritual growth does matter, in your own life and in the lives of those you serve. Please follow the blog series beginning with the spiritual growth overview. You will find links to more articles in the series in the related posts at the Learn of new blog posts by subscribing to the blog and/or following Ministry Tools Resource Center on Facebook, Google+ or Twitter. Scroll down for links to those platforms.
Yours in His service,
Phyllis Kline
