Practical Ministry
This is a new section for the Bible805 ministry, and the Ministry Miscellany Podcast goes along with it. It consists of tips, strategies, and resources for people who teach the Bible.
I'm doing it because, though a few detours have taken place, the primary activities of my life have been teaching the Bible, involvement with my church, and Christian ministries. I am incredibly, humbly, and joyfully grateful for the life and many, many ministry experiences the Lord has given me, and though I hope the Lord gives me many more years to serve Him (my grandmother taught Sunday School class into her 90s), I have already been at this long enough that I have some suggestions that might be helpful, some ministry advice that might be encouraging, and some resources that I've found helpful.
I feel the Lord wants me to pass them on. They are humbly offered with no claim of expertise or guarantee of success. Most is offered for free--only my personally authored books have a cost. Also, the Bible805 ministry takes no advertising, nor do I participate in any affiliate marketing schemes where I would get paid for promoting something. There are no hidden agendas for anything I tell you about.
I'll post the availability of new material here along with the podcast and on the Lion's Voice, the Bible805 Ministry newsletter.
