Frederick Faith Debate

One of your neighbors has written a book.  In it he exposes, through his personal experience and those of others, what he calls the unfathomable joy of tapping into God’s Omniscience.  This is Rohan Stewart’s first book.  “Renewing Your Mind Daily” shares a number of messages that he got through dreams, and he provides his case that the culture of God’s Kingdom mandates that its citizenry experience the supernatural realm.

The panel:

Troy Skinner.  930 WFMD Host/Moderator of The Faith Debate.

The book “Renewing Your Mind Daily” is brand new and has been written by a local, Rohan Stewart.  His book seeks to extract key elements of what he calls “Kingdom culture” from a combination of testimony, personal experience, and biblical events.  It’s a call away from conforming to the traditions of the world, and a call to being transformed by the renewing of your mind.

There’s a new local author in Frederick.  He’s written a book titled “Renewing Your Mind Daily”, that’s described as an exhilarating forty-day devotional journey emphasizing the culture of God’s Kingdom. It talks about embracing a culture that highlights how renewing the way we think, can lead to transformation and a lifestyle of submission to the authority of the Kingdom of Heaven.

To Fit or Not to Fit the Frederick Landscape, That’s the Question

The final episode of a four-part series has arrived.  Two Christian men have talked about how and why they became pastors, how and why their churches came to be located where they are, and how and why their ministries have taken the shape that they have.

This show we talk about the challenges of cultural obstacles.  There’s a distinct ethnic vibe with African churches.  What’s it like attempting to reach people who view life from differing vantage points?  How do our neighbors receive these congregations?  Do different cultural backgrounds profoundly change the way ministry is done?  Clement let me begin by turning to you.  How do you feel that your church fits into the Frederick landscape, and is it even important to be concerned with how well it fits or doesn’t fit?

The panel:

Troy Skinner.  930 WFMD Host/Moderator of The Faith Debate.

Dr. Neil Achaempong, Pastor of Covenant Family Chapel in Frederick County.

Clement Mbuyi, Pastor of International Tree of life Church in Frederick.

Beyond the Background and Formative Years of Ministry

This is part three of what’s proving to be a fascinating four-part series.  All start-up churches go through their fair share of change.  For example, Covenant Family Chapel will gather in Woodsboro (instead of downtown Frederick) beginning next month.  This show explores the considerations that go into weighing the need for change and the wisest path forward in making those changes.

Troy Skinner.  930 WFMD Host/Moderator of The Faith Debate.

Dr. Neil Achaempong, Pastor of Covenant Family Chapel in Frederick County.

Clement Mbuyi, Pastor of International Tree of life Church in Frederick.

Two Pastors from Africa are Now Friends in Frederick

This month Covenant Family Chapel is meeting in Downtown Frederick.  Beginning next month, Covenant Family Chapel will meet in their new building in Woodsboro.  Dr. Neil Achaempong is pastor at Covenant Family Chapel.  He’s friends with Clement Mbuyi, who is pastor International Tree of life Church in Frederick.

This program talks about some specifics related to the Covenant Family Chapel move to Woodsboro; and the early days of International Tree of Life Church, starting with the prayer line, the first gathering as a congregation, and other relevant details.

Challenges, Motivations, and Strategies for Church Plants

International Tree of life Church in Frederick began in 2011 by reaching  people through a weekly prayer line.  In 2012 they held their first service with just seven members. The church has since grown to about four dozen members.

Covenant Family Chapel is also in Frederick County, but they weren’t always.  They were down close to DC, then in northern Montgomery County, then on the west end of Frederick, then in downtown Frederick (which is where they are now, but not for long).  Beginning next month they will be in Woodsboro.

This week’s program begins a conversation with the pastors of these churches about the progression of development for young church plants.
