This is from last year’s conference which they have just made available online for others to benefit from.

The conference is called “Faithful Shepherd Pastors’ Retreat” and last year’s theme was on “The Welcoming Church.”
What is the purpose of this conference?

This is from my daily Greek exercise of sight reading many months ago, courtesy of Vincent S Artale Jr.
Our text is from the Greek translation of 1 Timothy 3:1. Here is my translation:
“SENTENCE 3 ‹ πιστὸς ὁ λόγος › [CD Εἴ [TP τις TP] ἐπισκοπῆς ὀρέγεται CD]
This is a faithful word: If anyone desire to be an overseerκαλοῦ ἔργου ἐπιθυμεῖ”
he desire a good work

Preaching with Passion by Alex Montoya: 2019 Winterim Lectures

Pastor Alex Montoya has been instrumental in God shaping how I preach and also with wisdom concerning pastoral ministry. He’s to me the Hispanic Charles Spurgeon and I lament that he’s retired from teaching in seminary.
Last week he’s recently taught for a Seminary Winterim session on the passion of preaching. In a one week intensive course he taught a future generation of those entering ministry on homiletic (how to preach).
I thought I share them with viewers to help preachers and those who are teachers.

Pastors: Be Swordsmen and Chefs

Ephesians 6:17 refers to the Word of God as the sword of the Spirit: “And take the helmet of salvation, and the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God.”
If the Word of God is a sword then that this helps us with understanding further two biblical roles of Pastors.

I read the kindle version of this book in preparation for my first funeral that I will be doing as a pastor. I had to read this pretty quick given the situation. I am glad I did as it was helpful. I read this work and took lots of notes from it. This was a book that I wished I read in seminary.
