Equipping Covenant Children for the Work of Ministry

Preacher:
Passage: Ephesians 4:1-16

Guest minister Blake Purcell (missionary to former Soviet Union countries and founder of the Slavic Reformation Society) urges Christian parents to help bring the filling of all things with Christ by training their children. Starting with the Old Testament, the Rev. Purcell shows how a multi-generational approach to training children in the faith was expected and carries over to the New Testament. Blake encourages us to have home-based ministries, teaching our children to have curiosity and respect for other cultures so they can reach where ordained ministers and other religious workers cannot be effective.
