Thank you, Min Dan. It sounds like you take seriously two very important verses for teachers:

“Not many of you should presume to be teachers, my brothers, because you know that we who teach will be judged more strictly.” (James 3:1)

“Do your best to present yourself to God as one approved, a workman who does not need to be ashamed and who correctly handles the word of truth.” (2 Tim. 2:15)

I pray God will continue to help you apply these verses and use you to His glory as you stay true to Him and His Word.

I do appreciate your wise and knowledgeable teaching. It helps me to push forward with great expectation that who-so-ever I attempt to reach, I will stop and think about what is best for the occasion. As being a teacher I found out that I must study twice as hard as my students to be able to answer their question correctly. Please keep me in your prayers that I will not miss-instruct any one about the Word of God. I know that I’m accountable for what-so-ever I teach others so pray very hard that I will follow the right path. May God Richly bless you’ll!

Finding gifted people who truly love young people will make such a difference. When we do that for which we are gifted and impassioned, we tend to put ourselves more wholeheartedly into it. These will be the people who will be committed to the young people. I praise God that the article helped bring clarification.

This article is a blessing to me as I am planning to have a teenage outreach programme (summer camp) next year. I realize that the greatest assest I can have in the team is a diverse group of committed people who love mentoring young people and will be committed to them. This was just a thought in my mind and I was wondering how it will work out. This article helped to clarify the balance between making people serve with gladness and not of neccesity or compulsion. Thank you.

Praise God for the excitement He is building within you. God will continue to equip and guide you as you trust in Him (Prov. 3:5-6). Prayer certainly is a big part of that. Patience and perseverance will also be needed as results are not always immediately obvious. Nurturing others is a process that takes time and persistence. My prayer for you as you proceed is that you will remember the Apostle Paul’s words in Galatians 6:9 — “And let us not be weary in well doing: for in due season we shall reap, if we faint not.” Our part in the process is to line up with Him and then trust Him and wait on Him to bring the results.

I have just finish reading some more of your material. I am so happy it just answered my questions. I am excited and ready to get started. You are so right if you allow people to work in the ministry and encourage them they will put their heart into it. We are launching out our theme which will be coming from 2 Timothy 2:15 “Study to show yourself approved unto God, a workman needeth not to be shame to rightly divide the word of truth”. Keep us in prayer. They need to be nurtured and discipline and I want more compassion and patience. Need prayer. Thanks be blessed

Yes, you are so right. Every church is different. It is when we try to do things the same as in another church without assessing whether it is the right direction that we can get ourselves into trouble, possibly rendering the ministry less effective because it is not the best fit. I praise God for your wisdom in this and will stop to pray that God guides you each step of the way.
