Book excerpt: Excerpt from Counsel to New Missionaries From Older Missionaries of the Presbyterian Church This is a book not of missionary policy but of personal counsel. All Of its chapters were written bv experienced missionaries. There is some inevi table duplication, but very little. The various chapters deal in the main with distinct questions and represent such a wide range of experience that even where the same questions are considered, it is with fresh suggestiveness. Each chapter is shaped, of course, by the conditions of the field in which its writer has worked, but this enriches the value of the whole. N O attempt has been made to present an exhaust ive book of counsel, but the Board has desired to place at the disposal of new missionaries some of the invaluable experience of men and women who know thoroughly whereof they speak, with the hope and prayer that the young men and women now going out to the field may be helped in this way to be better, happier and more fruitful serv ants Oi Jesus Christ Our Lord.

Download or read book Missions Ministering Beyond Our Borders Missionary Edition written by Jeremy Markle and published by . This book was released on 2014-09-30 with total page 302 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book has been written to provide insight into the physical, emotional, and spiritual adjustments a missionary faces as he begins his new life and ministry. Throughout its pages you will find spiritual encouragements for the missionary and helpful hints for his family and friends who desire to support him in his service to their Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. The "Letter to the Reader" expresses a personal caution for the reader to be open-minded and kind-hearted as he reads about the real struggles that missionaries encounter. It encourages the reader, whether missionary or missionary supporter, to be gracious as the physical and spiritual struggles of missions are openly illustrated and discussed with the goal of revealing Biblical comfort and counsel for each topic. The "Introduction" encourages the reader to balance the physical and emotional realities of missionary work with the spiritual joy of harvesting God's reward. Each chapter presents its subject matter by considering four progressive points of view of a missionary's life and circumstances: The Missionary Experience, The Biblical Example, The Actual Events, and The Biblical Exhortation. "The Missionary Experience" provides a brief synopsis of what a missionary may experience as he pursues God's call for his life. This brief introduction to the subject matter is based on real experiences missionaries have faced and is provided as an explanation of the importance of the specific subject of that chapter. "The Biblical Example" seeks to help the reader understand that his experiences are not new. They have been faced by others who have followed God's will for their lives and ministries throughout the Scriptures. By considering these examples, the missionary will have the opportunity to see examples of both correct and incorrect responses, as well as their results. It will also give the reader a 20/20 perspective of how God has used similar situations not to destroy His servants but rather to enhance their usability and bless their obedience in the end. "The Actual Events" is an opportunity for the author to share his personal experience or those of fellow missionaries he knows in order to help the reader understand that he is not alone. It also provides the opportunity to present specific spiritual lessons learned as he or others he knows have experienced the subject first hand. "The Biblical Exhortation" concludes the chapter by giving specific verses and passages of Scripture to direct the reader in the days and weeks that follow. The exhortation has a two-fold purpose: first, to provide the reader with clear Biblical instruction as to how he must follow God's Word and will in his life, and second, to provide a spiritual pep talk for those who are growing weary in the work. As each chapter concludes, three extra resources are provided. First, practical advice is given for each of the three different participants in the ministry of missions: the missionary candidate, the missionary's supporters, and the missionary in service. Second, extra passages of Scripture are included to help build the faith of those missionaries who are facing the specific trial or situations that have been addressed. Third, extra examples of Biblical characters who faced similar circumstances is provided, along with the passage reference so that further Biblical study can be made. The missionary's edition of the book includes an appendix that gives outlines and tips to help the missionary begin his new life and ministry on his field of service. Although each field of service is different, these outlines and tips are presented in such a way as to provide both detailed suggestions as well as general principles in directing the missionary to make wise choices in many of his tough decisions. The subject matter includes, but is not limited to, language learning, health concerns, housing arrangements, and church facilities.

Download or read book Sent Forth written by Ignacio Llorente and published by Wipf and Stock Publishers. This book was released on 2023-03-21 with total page 171 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Sent Forth is a book for all who wish to proclaim the gospel in the world today. It is the fruit of the missionary work of the Saint John Society, a society of apostolic life dedicated to the New Evangelization in the Catholic Church. Engaged in the concrete work of evangelization in flourishing Christian communities, the authors draw together the mind of the Church and the heart of the missionary. Taking lessons from the four Gospels, the encyclicals of popes, the writings of cardinals, and the accounts of everyday Christians who have sought to communicate their faith through all kinds of joys, sorrows, and questions, this book delivers fundamental theological principles—as well as practical, down-to-earth counsel—for Christians seeking to share Christ with their families, co-workers, and neighbors. What emerges is a picture of evangelization that is eminently personal, emphasizing attunement to the heart of Jesus. Where heart speaks to heart, the word received is to “go forth,” share what you have heard, and encourage others to partake in this inmost heartbeat of the world, the New Life in Christ!
