CEF Kramer Concert Summer Ministry Report—Part 1

CEF Kramer Concert Summer Ministry Report—Part 1

This year, our summer ministry fundraiser was hosting the Kramers for a special concert of praise and worship to the Lord! During the concert, our CEF staff shared a summer ministry report of our upcoming summer ministry outreach, including through our camp ministry at Camp Good News! Also, at the event, we had the privilege of honoring the life of Bill Wright, who recently went home to be with the Lord. Bill served over four decades with the ministry of CEF of Illinois and Camp Good News, serving on the camp committee, the CEF State Board, and building many, if not most, of the building constructions at Camp Good News through all the many years!

Prayers of a Mother's Heart—Mary in the New Testament

There is a lot of misinformation and unbiblical teaching concerning Mary, the mother of Jesus. However, the New Testament has much to teach us about Mary, including these three things: 1. Mary needed a Savior like everybody else. 2. Mary had the heart of a mother with a great capacity to love and feel great pain. 3. Mary was quick to turn to prayer and praise to the Lord, trusting in the Lord, even when she didn't fully understand.

The Prayers of a Mother's Heart: 'Hannah in the Old Testament'

God gave MOTHER's HEARTS a great capacity to not only love their children, but also to feel great pain for their children so that a mother's heart is sovereignly moved by the Lord to persistently pray for their children. Today, we look at a Biblical example from the story of Hannah in the Old Testament that teaches us as mothers' to pray persistently out of a heart of love for our families and our children today!

Gospel Methods

When you think of the 'Wordless Book,' the 'Romans Road, Gospel tracts, and the 'Bridge Illustration,' -- what do all of these have in common? They are all various methods to share with others the Good News of Christ! Methods of sharing the Gospel are many, but the message of the Gospel is singular, because there is only ONE GOSPEL MESSAGE! Methods are man-made, but the Gospel is God-made because the Gospel belongs to God alone! Whenever we share the Gospel through whatever our chosen method, we can trust that the Gospel through the proclamation of God's Word, alone has the power to save! Romans Chapter 1:16, "For I am not ashamed of the Gospel of Christ: for it is the power of God unto salvation, for everyone who believes."

The Gospel and Growth

Can you Gospel children too much? What is the connection between the Gospel and spiritual growth? In this program, we will first look at why is it important to share the Gospel with believers, especially with children, even after they have trusted in the Lord Jesus as their Savior. And second, we will look at how all spiritual growth teaching for believers is rooted and grounded in the Gospel. In reality, all spiritual growth is simply an application of how we should now live in Christ and for Christ, because of the Gospel!
