Day Eight - Thursday, July 7: Pastor's Conference Day Three

Here's the deal. So much happened today. So many blessings and miraculous workings of God. But...it is currently almost p.m. and only have 12% battery left. Today at the Pastor's Conference Scott Savage from North Phoenix Baptist Church taught on how to study the Scriptures and then we studied a Ephesians 2:1-10 together. Next he taught a method for preparing a sermon and and then he put it all together to show how to put a sermon together on a single passage.



I also left the conference and got a tour of another local school which is another amazing story.



AT the end of the day we were taken to a place where we got some great local crafts. what until you see my new Zambian shirt!


Steve asked a question about how we can all best pray for the Zambian pastors. Here are a few requests.

Pray that they will be diligent with time and study in preparation for their sermons.

Pray that they would continue to be loving shepherds who learn how to lead and love their flocks.

Pray that they would be able to take down barriers between them and their congregations that they would be more than just preachers.

  1. Thanks for the areas to pray for! Would have loved that seminar myself--anything about landing the plane? :) Cannot wait to hear the stories of the pastors and the school and VBS. How has the curriculum been for the kiddos? What have Zoe and Natasha been up to?
