The Organization Of The Ministry In The First Century Of The Church, Charles Russell Whittington

Bachelor of Divinity

Bachelor of Divinity

Originally this study had been intended to take the form of a training course for lay evangelism. Upon further consideration and research it became evident that this would be putting both pastor and people into a rigid pattern that would not fit in all cases.
