Have you ever felt like you weren't good enough? You're not alone. As an entire generation of our Movement leaves for a heavenly reward, Managing Editor DeWayne Hamby reminds readers that the same God who was with them will be with us.
General Overseer Randall E. Howard shares leadership lessons that be learned by studying the life of the Apostle Paul in the lead editorial, "Leaders Like Paul." "Paul pointed to Christ as his model, who humbled himself and surrendered to mistreatment and the suffering of the cross, so that God’s will may be done."
“Are we properly preparing our future leaders to fill pulpits and lead the lost to Christ?” asks Dr. H. E. Cardin, director of the Tomlinson Center, in this article from the August 2011 issue of the White Wing Messenger. "In the Great Commission, 'Go . . . make disciples' (Matthew 28:19 NIV) means more than just making believers. The simplest definitions of a disciple involve active following, living out the doctrines of Christ.
Church historian and CBL instructor Adrian L. Varlack, Sr. discusses three prayer moments in the life of Christ to illustrate the importance of prayer in the lives of believers. "We were created for God-dependency. Prayer (or praying), without a true and consciously admitted sense of God-dependence in humility and trust (faith), violates Christ’s own spirit of prayer."
In the lead feature article of the August issue, Dr. Hector Ortiz shares a powerful message about the pivotal moment of transitional leadership taking place in the Church of God of Prophecy. "I believe that the Church of God of Prophecy (COGOP) is experiencing a kairos moment in its history. A primary rationale for this view is how this group of believers, during a time of great transition, has grown from a worldwide membership of 260,000 in 1990 to 1.4 million in 2011."
