This week the Worthless Servants talk about steps three and four in our journey of church planting: finding/making contacts and the process of evangelism. How do we begin to meet people in a new area? How can we think about evangelism differently? Listen as they share some personal stories and practical advice.

The Worthless Servants are back with a new series and a new worthless servant! This time they're talking about church planting through the "10 Practical Steps of Church Planting” written by Manuel Molina. According to Pastor Manuel, steps one and two need to be Intentional Prayer and Planning. How can we be specific with our prayers? How can we plan for greater ministry success?

After two years and 64 episodes, Freya Galindo says “adios" to the ministry in the Dominican Republic in order to start a new chapter of her life in another assignment. Listen as we recount some of our favorite moments with Freya as well as her favorite moments in ministry so far. She may be leaving the podcast and the DR but she will continue in ministry in our region, so you may hear from her more in the future!

The ministry of Genesis is all about transforming the city. This week we hear about one event that did just that in Santo Domingo, Dominican Republic. 200 people united with five churches for 12 hours to reach five different communities! What was the purpose? What were the many creative strategies? How can we impact a city in one day? The Worthless Servants tell stories of their involvement, the training, the creativity, and the results from this event.

The Worthless Servants take another look at scripture and this time focus on Revelation 7:9-17. They bring their thoughts and questions about a piece of scripture that is maybe not well known. Everyone has something to say about this one, each from a different perspective! Don’t miss how they apply this to our everyday lives as well as where mission and missions fit in.

None of us are perfect and we all have our moments of failure, but how can we avoid moral failures while serving in ministry? This week we talk about a tough subject and hopefully offer some sound advice. We turn to Dan Reiland for some help in creating a list of ways to stay alert. Also, what does the Bible have to teach us? And what do snails have to do with all of this?

We’ve talked about being sent, but what about the ones doing the sending? What is the church’s role in sending missionaries? The Worthless Servants talk about some ways that the local church can help and support missionaries who are being sent from their own number. Also, what is a cadre and wha does that have to do with the sending church?

The Worthless Servants talked about home assignment in Episode 48 and gave us an inside glimpse at what it is like from their perspective. This time, the offer many ways that local churches can help missionaries during this chaotic time. They also highlight certain occasions when they have personally felt particularly blessed.

It may be a passage you’re familiar with but also one that is often overlooked: the calling of Paul and Barnabas by God. What does this say to us today? How should the church model this behavior? The Worthless Servants talk about what impacts them the most from this passage.

How do we reach our culture for Christ? How can we communicate Biblical truth more effectively? The answer must include “contextualization”. What is it? Why is it important? How much should we change or innovate in order to reach a culture? The Worthless Servants discuss these questions and refer to several experts for the answers.
