JEM PASTORAL TRAINING
March 29, 2010
Saturday, March 27, 2010, marks the third day of the First Phase of our Rural Bible School for Pastors and Church Leaders. This is an eight month Bible School which started in March 13, 2010, at Juah Town, District #2, Grand Bassa County, Liberia. This Bible School will continue up to October 2010.
The highlight of the day was the distribution of Study Bibles called “THE REFORMATION STUDY BIBLE, ENGLISH STANDARD VERSION”. These Bibles were bought and sent for Pastors in Liberia through the help of the Rev. Travis D. Hutchinson of the Presbyterian Church of America. Twelve Study Bibles were distributed.
One of the pastors was very happy and thankful for the Study Bibles. He testified that he used to walk about two hours to a pastor friend to help prepare his sermons. Now with the help of this study Bible, he need not walk such distance again to prepare his message.
After the distribution, we started our class for the day. We started at about 10:15AM and ended at 2:50PM with 18 persons in attendance. The course taught for the day was PREACHING BIBLICAL MESSAGES. We were able to complete the first of the seven steps to preaching biblical messages.
