Missions
This class is very interesting and has intrigued my mind. I want to take a trip across seas and do missions work. I have never done any missions work before over seas and I would really like to.
Vistas Chapter Four
Missions is something that will always be changing. Most of the times this change can be good. Some of those times we make the changes ourselves.
Vistas Chapter Two
The Church is always growing and growing and growing. There are millions of Christians and we are being globalized. Missions is something that will be growing and growing.
Vistas Chapter One
This chapter of Cooks book, "Vistas" is a very interesting chapter. Missions is always changing and we should accept that as followers of Christ.
Missionary Methods Part Three
Baptism is a big part of the Church because it is a new beginning. God has gotten rid of all of your past sins and you can begin a new.
Missionary Methods Part Two
Miracles are something that I believe in but have never seen. I believe that God still performs miracles and that He loves us unconditionally.
Missionary Methods Part One
There is a section in part one where it talks about the social and moral conditions. I believe that morality is something that we should always have as humans and that we should cherish this morality for it saves us from ourselves.
The Book of Acts
The book of Acts is a very interesting book and it shows us how missions can be very effective when God is with us fully and calls us into ministry.
Escobar Chapter Ten
Chapter ten's title is called A New Way of Looking At The World. When going in to missions I hope to have a new way of looking at the world.
Escobar Chapter Nine
The next chapters title is called Mission as Transforming Service. Missions is something that can change us and transform us into something new and that is what it should do. I would definitely want to go on a mission trip to see things differently and have a new perspective.
Escobar Chater Eight
The next chapter is chapter 8 and it is called Text and Context: The World Through New Eyes. This chapter is all about new churches and the way that they are seeing the world quite literally through new eyes.
Escobar Chapter Seven
Chpater Seven is named The Holy Spirit and Christian Mission. The Holy Spirit is a big part of our lives and I believe that we truly cannot do missions without the Holy Spirit.
Escobar Chapter Six
The six chapter is named Christ: God's Best Missionary. Christ is truly God's best missionary and he should be one of the ones we look to when we are doing missions.
Escobar Chapter Three
The title of the third chapter of the book is called A Brave New World Order. This chapter talks all about poverty and globalization. To me, poverty is a very serious thing and missions can help stop hunger throughout the world.
Escobar Chapter Two
The name of the second chapter is called Mud and Glory. This chapter deals with the advancement that past missionaries have made and what advancement missionaries are doing today. There are several things that it speaks about with missionaries and I have always wanted to go on a missionary trip.
Escobar Chapter One
The name of the first chapter in Escobar's book, "The New Global Mission" is called Christian Mission in a New Century. This chapter really deals with a lot of the new things dealing with missions in the new century that we now live in.
