I’ve returned from the Annual Meeting of the Dunamis Fellowship of Presbyterian Reformed Ministries International in Black Mountain NC.
I have been part of this organization since at least 1997, and have been a faculty member of the Fellowship. This means that I am called upon to teach their courses, particularly the Evangelism Dunamis Tract, at various locations in the country.
I attend the annual meeting every year since it is a chance to reconnect with "family" friends that perhaps I only get to see once a year. It is also my annual prayer retreat.
This year, I had the privilege of leading the morning Bible study. The theme that the Lord had put on my heart was the "Father’s Heart for the nations." We are called into the kingdom of God, not only so that we’ll have eternal life, but so that we can participate in God’s plan to gather the nations to worship Christ.
Another rather significant development took place.
I was set apart as "Pioneer Faculty for Missions and Evangelism in the Americas." I received commissioning prayer in this role.
I will become their point person for training and teaching on Missions and Evangelism, in both English Speaking and Spanish speaking congregations in the Western Hemisphere. That’s a broad territory!
PRMI doesn’t have much inroad yet into the Hispanic churches and so the need is pioneer that work. How this will all work logistically (funding, developing more leaders, for example), we are still sorting out, but we both sense that this is God’s doing as our ministry unfolds.
There is so much crossover between the work of PRMI and the work of EvangelismCoach.org that there is a natural synthesis of the two.
