Calling – Who? What? Why?
In the church, there exists a widespread misconception that only “exceptional Christians” receive a “proper” calling from God. The truth, however, is that God has unique plans for every believer, as stated in Ephesians 2:10. We must actively seek Him to discern our individual callings.

The Antioch Factor
Ross Paterson presents a stark choice that no Christian or church can avoid making – whether we become a Jerusalem church or Antioch Church. Ross unpacks what that means and its critical importance from the events of the early church in Acts. Why did Paul find Jesus in Damascus, not in Jerusalem? Why was Paul sent out with Barnabas from Antioch, not from Jerusalem?

That was excellent and very insightful… I need to think on this more, a lot more! So much to take in and think over in this module. This should be part of all church discipleship programmes.
