What is the Gospel that Paul said was the power for salvation for all who believe? It cannot be just anything we call "gospel." No! It must be what Paul (and the other Apostles) said is the Gospel. You might be surprised to learn that the Gospel is not about you so much about God and his Son Jesus Christ. Learn the gospel and its summons. (more info) by David Suryk |

(Within the category of ethnic specific fellowships, they are Pan Asian American, Korean American or Chinese American). We will talk about the Scriptural basis for these fellowships, presenting two views as well as to discuss the strengths and weaknesses of the two types of ministries. This paper is intended for Asian American staff and students. Though it may relate to other situations as well, it is not intended to address issues of all ethnic specific ministries. Before we start, we want to start by introducing ourselves a bit and sharing some about our background, and why we are writing this paper. (more info) by Collin Tomikawa & Sandy Schaupp |
