Queen Way church of Christ
Congregation's Website: ​queenwaycoc.com
Comments: Hello from the brethren in Christ who meet at Queen Way in Sparks, NV We have decided to conduct a preacher training program this year (2022). We are looking for a man who has already decided to devote his life to spreading the gospel of Christ. We have no pre set conditions other than that. We have money set aside to provide support to the man. While our first choice would be that he either be single or married without children, that should not cause you to discount any man because of that. We are looking for the right man to work with & train. If he is older with a few kids and he is desiring training as he pursues the life and work of evangelist please pass him our info. The man who will be the head of the training is an evangelist, Daniel Hedges. He has been preaching since 2008. While he has worked with other inexperienced evangelists in the past, this will be his first time conducting a full preacher training program. He will be assisted by many of the brethren in the church who are wise and very knowledgeable in the Scriptures. We will not try to make the man conform to any particular mold of ?what we think an evangelist should look or sound like or a particular presentation style?. Rather, we will guide the man to develop his own talents while guiding him to increase in God's wisdom, knowledge of the Scriptures and how to teach them in order to work with brethren and seek and save the lost. We thank you for your consideration on this matter and any information you can pass along to any interested man.
