smithj7 Posted May 23, 2009 Report Share Posted May 23, 2009 Hello, my name is Bill. I live in souther Illinois and I am excited about starting this Bible Study. It's nice to be able to dig deep into HIS word. Through Prayer and study I hope to gain an even deeper love and appreciation for our blessed Savior. So often I've found myself asking, "are you just playing church or are you learning anything", hopefully this study will put everything into perspective. Hi Bill. I definately agree with you feelings. May God be with us all as we "dig deep". I never heard that expression, but I like it. -- Jamie Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hi I live in Salta, Argentina with my wife Rachel and our children Micah and Leah. It is beautiful here. We are missionaries. As missionaries we do about anything that needs to be done - construction, pastor, teach, evangelism, etc. Our heart is for the lost that they too would become holy love disciples of Jesus. I just finished Great Prayers I am looking forward to the vision God has for His church. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am involved in the adult education ministry at a large local congregation.

Revmpike Posted October 14, 2011 Report Share Posted October 14, 2011 Hello my name is Michael Pike and I am pastor of Exeter United Methodist Church in Exeter, New Hampshire. I am excited about this study from Ephesians as I am preaching a series on God's Vision for The Church and praying for a revelation of vision for ministry in my own life and in our local church. I want to seek and pursue and grasp God's vision for all that we can be and do for the Kingdom. I have become convinced that this is absolutely essential for every Christian and every church. One great book on the topic is The Power of Vision by George Barna. if you know of others I would love to hear from you . . . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bluebird50 Posted November 8, 2013 Report Share Posted November 8, 2013 Hello, This is Larry from Beautiful Western North Carolina. I am a small town boy raised on Christian Values which have stuck with me my whole life. Sometimes the Lord had to take me out behind the barn to point out my wrong directions but that is the wonderful love and grace of our Lord and Savior. He will give you a second chance by His love and forgiviness. The price has been paid! Want to learn more of Him by this study. Bless all participating!

lmscarbeau Posted September 12, 2015 Report Share Posted September 12, 2015 hi all fellow Bible believers. My name is Larry and I live in Edmonton Alberta with my wife of 42+ years. We spent almost 30 years as pastors in The Salvation Army and took early retirement 11 years ago due to my wife's health. We have three adult children and four grand children. i'm still in the work world as an administrator of a specialized residential health care facility for persons with dementia, brain injury and mental illness. I count every day as a blessing to serve my fellow man in the name of Christ. Nothing is more exciting than sharing God's Word through everyday conversations and group Bible studies. Looking forward to sharing on this forum what God is doing in my part of His Kingdom. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
