Notes from a book.
Back to the Bible … a ministry that is focused on getting people, well, back to the Bible.
A sermon in 1955 … that is still impacting hearers/readers today. The orator was so personally challenged and impacted by his own words, put the message to print. The sermon … Born to Reproduce.
Dawson Troutman … founder of Navigators Ministries, an evangelist, and hero. Yes, hero. He lost his life within a year after preaching the sermon I will discuss below. He lost his life while saving a drowning skier in Schroon Lake in June 1956.
Without discussing the book, let me just give six questions that I noted down when I read the book 10 years ago …
1 — How will I fill my mind with Truth?
2 — How will I fuel my affection for God?
3 — How will I share God’s love as a witness in the world?
4 — How will I show God’s love as a member of a church?
5 — How will I spread God’s glory among all peoples?
6 — How will I make disciple makers among a few people?
And my last question … which one challenges you the most.
