Apostles! Didn't they all die out at the end of the first century? Didn't I hear a person using that title on my radio? Today, this theological debate rages: in these last days, is God again raising up apostles with first-century capabilities? Certainly Bertril Baird knows the answer. In a ministry spanning five decades, this "Admiral" has brought hope and deliverance throughout the Caribbean region, the Americas, Africa, and India.

The big question about Christianity today is: "Are men of God real men of God?" What is happening in church services, by men of God is so aberrant that the gospel mission is in danger of bearing any fruits. One of the problems I have identified is the lack of mentorship to many self-proclaimed ministers of the gospel. There should be no excuse for a Minister of the Gospel to remain ignorant of his calling and the requirements attached to it. This book is one of the tools to stop this mythomania of so-called ministers of God; who do not only know exactly what they are doing in the ministry, but also are ignorantly destroying the excellent work of preaching the Gospel of our Lord Jesus Christ. This consequently affects the expansion of the work of the of the kingdom of God on earth. Preparation For The ministry of The Gospel is to assist the Ministers of the Gospel to be trained, prepared, equipped and mentored for this noble, but highly demanding and sacrificial work of preaching the Gospel of our Lord Jesus Christ, to the Gentiles and managing the affairs of the ministry of God.This book will also assist the Minister of the Gospel to avoid making common mistakes made by his predecessors. Avoiding the blunders experienced by believers who find themselves tired and demoralized (sometimes) by too many self-gratifying happenings in some churches.

This toolkit of intentional and compassionate strategies takes an encouraging, incremental approach to help even small groups get started quickly. Study the separate chapters on: imaginative marketing; the ministry of greeting, crafting welcoming materials, tracking and involving newcomers and structuring groups for growth. Then adapt an additional 34 pages of template forms, brochures, and procedures to your needs while employing Weeks' point-by-point recommendations to: make sure your signs and property invite, not confuse; create powerful, welcoming ads and print communication, train and prepare greeters; and develop programs to incorporate and track newcomers during their first critical months.

Socio-Historical Examination of Religion and Ministry (SHERM journal) is a biannual, not-for-profit, free peer-reviewed academic journal that publishes the latest social-scientific, historiographic, and ecclesiastic research on religious institutions and their ministerial practices. SHERM is dedicated to the critical and scholarly inquiry of historical and contemporary religious phenomena, both from within particular religious traditions and across cultural boundaries, so as to inform the broader socio-historical analysis of religion and its related fields of study. The purpose of SHERM is to provide a scholarly medium for the social-scientific study of religion where specialists can publish advanced studies on religious trends, theologies, rituals, philosophies, socio-political influences, or experimental and applied ministry research in the hopes of generating enthusiasm for the vocational and academic study of religion while fostering collegiality among religious specialists. Its mission is to provide academics, professionals, and nonspecialists with critical reflections and evidence-based insights into the socio-historical study of religion and, where appropriate, its implications for ministry and expressions of religiosity.
