Train for Ministry
2 Corinthians 5:18 says God has “reconciled us to Himself through Christ and gave us the ministry of reconciliation.” That passage goes on to say that we are “Christ’s ambassadors.” In other words, all Christians are called to help bring others to Christ just as we have come to know Him ourselves.
Ministerial Courses are not just for those involved in full time ministry. We are all called to dig deep and study the Word, to learn how to encourage, develop and lead others in Christ. These courses will help you do just that! Be sure to listen to the voice of the Holy Spirit and do not let it become just an academic exercise but another avenue for you to draw closer to God. Courses by Harvestime here are used with their permission and cannot be duplicated and sold in any way. Download the pdf files for free and work at your own pace. Consider going through a course with someone else or a small group. Just another way for you to love God and love people more!
