Book excerpt: Why Campus Ministry? How one denomination organized a national campus ministry that has become a major Christian student movement. The two authors, Dennis Gaylor, and John W. Kennedy provide the history and contemporary stories of Chi Alpha Campus Ministries, USA. In Part 1, Dennis Gaylor tells a 76-year (1947-2023) Chi Alpha history by decades. He explains how Chi Alpha was organized with a handful of students and a volunteer instructor. He takes us through decades of growth led by six national leaders, describes powerful student and staff conferences, intensive leadership training, and world missions summits mobilizing generations of students in cross-cultural missions. Today, there are hundreds of campus ministry staff and thousands of students active on almost 300 campuses. In Part 2, John W. Kennedy captures current stories of Chi Alpha leadership and students, originally published as news stories in AG News during the past year, 2022. Kennedy has interviewed hundreds of campus ministers and students, including visiting campuses and Chi Alpha conferences, to observe Chi Alpha firsthand. He has written hundreds of stories about Chi Alpha demonstrating the influence and power of a relationship with Jesus Christ and tells how the Holy Spirit works in campus ministry today. Part II brings the ministry of Chi Alpha to life.

This book was released on 2020 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This research developed a history of Chi Alpha’s outreach to international students in America. The work recognizes that the same events can support different views, but as of yet, no research has published a comprehensive account in this area. The work of Chi Alpha has greatly expanded over time and this study analyzes contributing factors in light of their context. Dennis Gaylor (2017e, 21), former Chi Alpha director, quotes George Barna as saying, “In His wisdom and compassion, God has brought the mission right to our door and affords us the outreach opportunity of a lifetime. The only obstacle to American Christians reaching the lives of these future international leaders is our own lack of effort to reach out to them.” Not only does the students’ proximity make them more easily accessible, but the freedoms offered by this country allow outreach with the gospel in ways often not realized in their homelands. This study entails four components: (1) analysis of the historiography of Chi Alpha to assist in the interpretation of findings; (2) literature and document review focused on the history of Chi Alpha’s outreach to internationals in America; (3) qualitative research methodology in the form of topical interviews with key people and people of interest associated with Chi Alpha to obtain oral histories of the ministry; and (4) integration of the information gathered in all phases of the research into a history of Chi Alpha’s work with international students, with evaluation and perspective in the concluding observations.

Download or read book Discipleship by Design written by Harvey A. Herman and published by Xulon Press. This book was released on 2008-08-06 with total page 206 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "As Jesus walked beside the Sea of Galilee, he saw Simon and his brother Andrew casting a net into the lake, for they were fishermen. 'Come, follow me, ' Jesus said, 'and I will make you fishers of men.'" The relationship between Jesus and these brothers started with the simple words, "Come, follow me." In essence, a disciple of Jesus is a follower. Eventually, Jesus' twelve followers will change the world. However, it is an inconspicuous and unremarkable beginning for an eventual team of world-changers, don't you think? How will an assortment of "unschooled, ordinary men" be transformed into courageous and substantive heralds in just three short years? Transformation, complete and deep-seated transformation, is the answer. How does a total metamorphosis take place within a new follower? Jesus' discipleship begins with a personal relationship and an invitation to join a missional community. Before followership is a program it is a leadership development process experienced within a culture. This book seeks to initiate a dialogue on how to foster a culture of discipleship. No program can fulfill The Great Commission. However, a community of believers committed to transforming the world through the process of disciple-making can. Harvey A. Herman is a missionary serving university students. Over the previous three decades he pioneered five campus groups, pastored a university church in Seattle, and served on the national staff of Chi Alpha Christian Fellowship. Presently, he serves as area director over the Northeast. His doctorate is in strategic leadership and organizational management.
Download or read book Sacred Pathways written by Gary Thomas and published by Zondervan. This book was released on 2020-09-08 with total page 289 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Sacred Pathways reveals nine distinct spiritual temperaments--and their strengths, weaknesses, and tendencies--to help you improve your spiritual life and deepen your personal walk with God. It's time to strip away the frustration of a one-size-fits-all spirituality and discover a path of worship that frees you to be you. Experienced spiritual directors, pastors, and church leaders recognize that all of us engage with God differently, and it's about time we do too. In this updated and expanded edition of Sacred Pathways, Gary Thomas details nine spiritual temperaments and--like the Enneagram and other tools do with personality--encourages you to investigate the ways you most naturally express yourself in your relationship with God. He encourages you to dig into the traits, strengths, and pitfalls in your devotional approach so you can eliminate the barriers that keep you locked into rigid methods of worship and praise. Plus, as you begin to identify and understand your own temperament, you'll soon learn about the temperaments that aren't necessarily "you" but that may help you understand the spiritual tendencies of friends, family, and others around you. Whatever temperament or blend of temperaments best describes you, rest assured it's not by accident. It's by the design of a Creator who knew what he was doing when he made you according to his own unique intentions. If your spiritual walk is not what you'd like it to be, you can change that, starting here. Sacred Pathways will show you the route you were made to travel, marked by growth and filled with the riches of a close walk with God. A Sacred Pathways video Bible study is also available for group or individual use, sold separately.
Download or read book The Christ of the Indian Road written by E Stanley Jones Foundation and published by Abingdon Press. This book was released on 2010-08-01 with total page 220 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Jones recounts his experiences in India, where he arrived as a young and presumptuous missionary who later matured into a veteran who attempted to contextualize Jesus Christ within the Indian culture. He names the mistake many Christians make in trying to impose their culture on the existing culture where they are bringing Christ. Instead he makes the case that Christians learn from other cultures, respect the truth that can be found there, and let Christ and the existing culture do the rest.
