Summary
For all courses I have learned many issues to my life which are type of leadership to the church , many churches are don’t stable because of dictatorship leadership , founders of the churches most of them they don’t want any member to the church to ask on money and other resources ,pastors are considering that the property of the church are their family properties.
Also to many churches the administration structure are not available a pastor is a leader of everything.
Not only that but also many of leaders are not depending God to their ruling their ruling as their selves and not the power of God and the fainaly the church fail.
Suggestion.
Leaders must use democracy to rule their churches and being responsible to the Christianity
Second all readers must be the good example of manners to the society and not to be bad behavior to the society
Third.Pray the lord before doing any thing to your life .
All God help me in my study to be a pastor .
Ameb
A must for anyone considering missions work !
I found this course to be incredibly insightful into all the aspects of missionary work. Kay took me through many concepts that I hadn’t considered when thinking of our culture meeting different cultures and how we apply Christianity. Matt was very insightful and hearing his journey in the suburbs gave me tools for my context. Great course and will be a continued resource.
