Discipleship and leadership course

Lesson 8, Part 2, Bouncing Back In Ministry and Life

Based on Mark 14 where Jesus tells his disciples that all will fall away, I address the subject of bouncing back as we see how Jesus responds to his disciples as they have actually fallen away, as they betrayed, renounced and left Him. He waits for them at the other side of betrayal and restores them.

Introduction to “What I have learned during my 50 years of Christian Ministry”

Discipleship and Leadership course for Christian Ministry. A once a week, 26 week course in Fridhemskyrkan, Bergsgatan 59, Stockholm. Introduction to the course based on child/siblings/parents concept or servant/co-worker/leader concept as growing into spiritual maturity.

Lesson 1, The Call to Ministry

The call to ministry is based on the life and calling of the prophet Jeremiah. I address the tension between the person Jeremiah and the prophet Jeremiah from Jeremiah Chapter 1. The tension and, at times, internal fight with - and consequences of a calling are part of our journey in following Jesus Christ and His mission for each one of us.

Lesson 2, Rooted in Scripture

Today we will look at the importance of being rooted in the Scripture. When studying apostasy or backsliding in the Bible, we find that the most examples of this are found in the book of Judges. While pursuing cultural relevance in our approach to explain the Bible, we find that it is not the answer. Relevance is a tool; gospel proclamation is the goal. When we pursue relevance as the goal, it leads to a disastrous change in what church is all about!

Lesson 12, Part 2, Characteristics of False Prophets

In this lesson I have addressed in depth the characteristics of false prophets (while most of these characteristics also can be applied at other false ministries as well).

Lesson 12, Part 1, The Ministry of a Prophet

I give a Biblical background to the ministry of the prophet, starting from the Old Testament. A reflection about the differences of the OT prophet and the NT prophet based on the different covenants.

Lesson 11, Part 2, The Ministry of an Apostle

The. continuation of lesson 1, with relevant and very practical applications relating to the Biblical principles and characteristics of an apostolic ministry. I derive these examples from the many years of ministry in the planting of churches and the start and forming of a church planting network.

Lesson 11, Part 1, The Ministry of an Apostle

We look in depth to the office / ministry of the apostle described in Ephesians chapter 4 as being part of the five-fold ministry given to the Church. We look at the role of an apostle and compare the calling and functions of an apostle with the other offices (prophet, evangelist, teacher and pastor/shepherd). I give arguments against those who believe that these five offices were not needed anymore after the Early Church.
