The call of God

upon a man or woman to serve Him is a high calling. A servant of the Lord must be an individual who demonstrates God’s calling upon his life. For the position of a deacon or elder, he must be biblically qualified to be an elder according to 1Timothy and Titus. Below is a list of recommended resources to help you grow spiritually. Often we will be approached by a person who says...

“What can I do to go deeper in my commitment to Jesus Christ?” Studying through this list of helpful resources will launch you in that direction.

May the Lord bless you and strengthen you as you serve Him with your whole heart!
