Let The Training Begin
Now, this is ministerial success. This is going to be big. Shall we buy some land and build a synagogue? How about getting incorporated? Don’t we need to write up our doctrines of faith, print up some literature, pass out some brochures, and start giving our new synagogue some exposure to the community?
How are people going to start coming to us if they don’t see that we have a place to meet? Where are we going to set up shop? Some of the most successful synagogues use the Sadducee doctrines and methods. Are we going to do some research and see what they are doing?

Starting a church isn’t the objective here. Touching lives is the objective. The needs are out in the community. The ministry is going to be where the people are.
Mat 18:12-14 (NIV) What do you think? If a man owns a hundred sheep, and one of them wanders away, will he not leave the ninety-nine on the hills and go to look for the one that wandered off? And if he finds it, I tell you the truth, he is happier about that one sheep than about the ninety-nine that did not wander off. In the same way your Father in heaven is not willing that any of these little ones should be lost.
