Soul Care Training #1 - 2016-17

This is first of six weekly Soul Care training posts.
After you have viewed each of these three videos, email soulcare @ emmanuelbaptist.com
The first two videos are approximately 2 minutes each and the third is approximately 6 minutes.

Post #1 is designed to remind us of the purpose of Soul Care and introduce us to the Onward study.

The Purpose of Soul Care in three videos:

Video #1:  from Camp Patmos.

Hello!  I thought this would be a great place record our first training 2016 training video.
Here at the lighthouse at Camp Patmos.

And I want to begin with telling you about a movie called THE FINEST HOURS.

This amazing, powerful true story is about the biggest small boat rescue in the history of the coast guard.

In the story there men on the sinking boat and on the shore who make some difficult decisions and face some strong opposition.  (HERE is a link to the movie trailer.)

BUT because they were concerned about people’s lives, they did what needed to be done to save lives.  This is not a spoiler alert:  the crew is saved.

After watching the movie I realized our Soul Care ministry is a rescue ministry.

With the power of The Holy Spirit, God’s Word and the church, we come  alongside one another to encourage one another to grow more and more in Christ.

Over the next couple of weeks I want to remind you how God has been using Soul Care at Emmanuel and I want to challenge each of us to prayerfully consider how you can help others glorify God as worshipping, growing, loving disciples.

Please check back here every Tuesday for through August for some specific training information.

There will be information posted on the church blog this week!



Video #2:  A clip about the Onward study that explains why we are doing this study at this time.




Video #3:  an explanation of Soul Care given in the service on July 3rd.

We want to get a small group of people to come together to encourage one another and help one another grow.
