Officiating Weddings
As you know, Pastor Sookwan Lee is not really an assistant pastor, although that is his title. Assistant Pastors' ministries involve helping their senior pastor. But Pastor Lee doesn't just help my ministry; he has his own ministries, including filling the pulpit when I am gone. He is more like a co-pastor.
One of his ministry duties is representing our church at denominational meetings and other associations. He attends the annual Southern Baptist Convention and Southern Baptist Texas Convention as our messenger. He also represents our church at the Korean Baptist Church ...
I Got A C In Preaching
When I tell people that I got a C in my seminary preaching class, some simply don't believe it. Others say that there must have been something wrong with the preaching professor. I appreciate their comments, because they show that they like me and my sermons.
While I've said on various occasions that I got a C in preaching, I've never explained why I got that grade.
The professor who taught preaching at Golden Gate Baptist Theological Seminary was more interested in the techniques that made a "good" sermon than the Bible passages they were based on. As a result, the ...
Get in the Game!
Have you ever seen the movie, "Rudy"? It's a really inspiring true story of a man named Rudy Ruettiger, who despite all the odds against him, played football for the University of Notre Dame. You should really watch it, but to sum it up, Rudy would not have been able to fulfill his dream to play for Notre Dame if it were not for his relentless determination to get into at least one game. This was one guy who would not be satisfied while staying on the sidelines.
This month is our Ministry Rush Month and I'm so thankful for all of you who are involved in our student ...
House Church Movement Coworkers
Let me introduce to you my coworkers in the house church movement. They are pastors of churches where I led house church seminars or preached. You will hear about them more often in the future.
Pastor Oh Myoung-kyo pastors The Bright Church in Namyang-ju, Korea. For many years, he pastored several churches on small islands in the Southern Sea off of the Korean peninsula. (That is where he met and married the sister of Pastor Koo Ji-Hong, who was a member of our church for 3 years while he was wrote his D.Min dissertation at Southwestern Baptist Theological Seminary.) He ...
Make a Bold Statement of Faith
We all need to make a statement of faith. Bold statements of faith that will guide us in difficult trials and help us to know what we are living for. As a result, you will make a difference in the lives of others.
When the Taliban captured the South Korean short-term mission team, pastor Bae was killed because he had refused to convert to Islam. His wife made a statement that she will not have his funeral until rest of the team was released and brought home safely. Her bold statement guided her through the dark hours.
When the Israelites were turning their backs on God ...
Nursing Rooms, Fellowship Hall & Worship Time
As we are getting used to and enjoying our new facility, I am hearing from you and also noticing things on my own that require some explanation and need all of your cooperation. We can’t meet all needs, but we will do the best we can to serve you.
In regards to nursing roomsI would like to inform you that both the Prayer Room (Room #110) near the end of the long hall way between the Sanctuary and the Staff Offices and the Multipurpose Room (Room #202), which is being used for Sunday Morning Intercessory Prayer Meeting before worship, are available for nursing during ...
Conference For Korean Baptist Foreign Missionaries
I just came back from speaking at the Conference for Korean Baptist Foreign Missionaries, held in Indonesia from September 4-7. It was the first conference for missionaries serving in Southeast Asia. Brother Ha, who serves as regional director of Indonesia for House Church Ministries Intl. hosted the conference. He believes that the house church is the best church model for hostile mission fields and desired that his fellow missionaries learn about it and implement it in their fields.
He expected around 70 missionaries to attend, but 97 came - from Vietnam, the Philippi...
