New Staff Training (NST) is something every staff person goes through to better understand their position focus and job description. This year the intern, Esther, and I are going through NST with our female director, Jen, every other week at our Cru house (pic left). This past week we discussed the annual plans and goals of our own personal work within the Jersey Metro ministry as a whole. Later, my director and I revisited one of the tools we use to help give a clear gospel presentation. This tool, historically known as "
the 4 Laws" is a 7 page booklet entitled "
Would You Like to Know God Personally?" (KGP)
After a quick lunch, my director, Jen, and I drove up to Newark, NJ to meet with two key contact students from Rutgers University (Newark Campus). These students would like to start a ministry on their campus but don't know how just yet. As an established ministry, we can train them in pioneering their campus for Christ. This particular afternoon, I was able to train one young lady in how to share her faith using the
KGP. Young in the faith, this student happily embraced the opportunity to learn this simple method and even asked for a second booklet to show her friend!
After Newark and a quick dinner, I headed over to Kean University where the women involved where having their first women's time of the semester. I lead the six ladies in a discussion about an article from the thought-evoking book
"Fantasy: An Insatiable Desire for a Satisfying Love" by Betty Churchill. This book addresses the issues faced by women in their twenties or so to help bring them positive encouragement and clear biblical teaching. We had a great time learning a little about each other but even more so, about the truths God has placed in our lives which is the loving fact that He comes to save the world, not to condemn it.
I really enjoy that my job is full of unique ways to build into the lives of students so that they learn how to live a fulfilled life that shines the love of Christ to others!
