5 Rules for Prosperous Bible Study

Ben Bailey

Study the Bible Prayerfully.  Before a person ever open his Bible, he should fall down on his knees and ask for God’s blessings.  Paul reminds us of this principle as he prays for the Christians at Collosae. “For this reason we also, since the day we heard it, do not cease to pray for you, and to ask that you may be filled with the knowledge of His will in all wisdom and spiritual understanding” (Col. 1:9).

In the Field and Around the World (wide-web)

What is a Field Rep and why are you here?

Joey Ferrell

Oftentimes, when we reach out to a congregation or even when we are working with our existing relationships, the question comes up “what is a field rep?” Sometimes, we may get a bit assumptive in thinking that everyone already knows what this means…when in reality, many may not.

Allow me to give a simple explanation, if I may. Our Field Reps are seasoned gospel preachers that have a desire to spread the gospel message with others. Sometimes these preachers have retired from regular pulpit duties, or maybe they work a full-time job outside of ministering and do not get the opportunity to do what they love and feel a calling for - preaching the gospel!

A Special Tribute

Last year, when we were in the process of building our apps, we asked for some volunteers to test and give feedback.

One of the wonderful volunteers that responded was from the overseeing congregation of TGOC. He reached out to our media team and offered to test the audio podcasts while driving to and from work and the overall fluidity of the app when he was at home.

After only a day or two, he provided much more feedback than any of our own in-house testing could generate!

He was a staple in the successful launch of our apps program last April.

On Saturday, that precious soul was involved in a horrific accident that took his life at the very young age of 29. This man was a great Christian, father, husband, and friend to so many. 

He leaves behind his sweet wife and 4 beautiful children ranging in age from 1 to 6 years old.

We would like to ask that you pray for this family, especially over the next several days. We know that God's love and comfort will provide strength for them in this difficult time.

For our dear friend and brother in Christ, Doug Bullington - you will be missed greatly. Your example of a servant heart and love for Emily Rose Bullington and your precious children gives a bright shining example in a world of darkness.

May God's hand of comfort and strength be with the Bullington family.

~Joey
