New Beacon Ministry Location

We are in the process of beginning a Beacon Ministry Institute extension school in our local church. Tennessee Presiding Bishop, Dr. E. C. McKinley is promoting Beacon University and Beacon Ministry Institute. We plan to offer biblically, evangelically, and spiritually relevant courses for equipping those who desire to become more capable of ministering in the kingdom of God. There are several tracts available and each tract has the courses needed to receive a diploma of completion.

The courses are well written, taught by qualified, degreed professors on DVD and/or video and will be accomodated and facilitated by the Huntingdon Church of God of Prophecy.

The cost is $125.00 per course* including the book, workbook, class time, instructor, and facilitator. The courses general run 10 hours in length and plans are to begin on Monday evenings in November from 6:30 – 8:30 pm for 5 weeks. At the end of the course, with a C average, the participant will be refunded $25.00. The following are two examples of tracts that can be completed.

Certificate of Evangelism
• Equipping for Evangelism
• Preparing the 21st Century Church
• New Strategies for Evangelism
• The Theology of Relationships
• Theology of Missions

Certificate of Theology of God’s Glory and Presence
• The Glory of God
• God’s Manifest Presence
• Holy Spirit II
• God Hedge: The Fruit of the Spirit
• Experiencing and Encountering the Holy Spirit

For a detailed list of tracts, courses and other information go here for the complete catalog.

We are making these courses available to anyone who desires to become more skilled in the ministry of the kingdom of God. A high school diploma is desired but not necessary. You can speak to the facilitator (Milton Gordon) or go to the web site for details.
*NOTE: For those who are interested and desire to take courses there may be scholarship assistance available for those in needof help with payment. Please see Pastor Milton Gordon

Come Down From That Ivory Tower

Hebrews 11 has become known as the "Hall of Faith." The reason is quite simple. The writer spends a great deal of time giving a role call of the heroes of the faith. After all, this chapter is about faith, and what better way to teach faith than to illustrate with some real-life examples. Mos of the people in this chapter are well-known, at least by anyone who spent time squirming in a Sunday School class as a small child, or who watched the late-night movies on the local channels featuring their stories. Who were they? Abel, Enoch and Noah. Abel pleased God with his excellent offering, Enoch was so close to God that he actually walked with God to the point that one evening, while walking God said to Enoch, "we are closer to my house than we are yours, so why don't you just go home with me?" Of course, Noah built an ark (according to God's instructions) that saved mankind from total destruction. Then there was Abraham...the father of the faithful. He...

A question about your church...

This last few days I have been in the State of Kentucky. I came here with my wife, whose father was having medical tests as of the results of a probable heart attack. He seems to be doing well (as of tonight) and is scheduled for one more test, then hopefully he will be released and further treatments to bring him to health. While this is a scary moment for my wife's family it has also been a time to step away from the daily work and observe others around us. Since Debra's father is a pastor (Church of God of Prophecy, Central City, KY) there have been visits from the State Presiding Bishop, Scott Gillum, area pastors and of course some of his church members. It is heartening to watch the love and concern that is show by those visiting. There has also been quite a few of Debra's extended family here, along with her younger brother and his family. I've watch the nurses and technicians at the Owensboro Medical Center demonstrate concern and what seems to be good care...

On my way to a resurrection

Someone asked, "Are you on your way to another funeral?" My answer was, "No, I am on my way to a resurrection." Tonight, after having preached my sister's funeral, two church members funerals and visiting a friend whose brother had passed away, I had a little quiet time in my home office. As I often do, I reach for an old book I've found that some books written long ago can speak to my heart. This time, it was a book published in 1946. This passage from J.B. Chapman touched my heart, hope it does yours too. Victor Hugo exclaimed, "The frosts of seventy winters are on my head, but the springtime of eternal youth is in my heart." "Sometimes we look at the gray hair of a ripening saint, and say, "Old man, the frosts of many winters are on your head." But he answers, "That is not frost. I am getting ready to wear the crown of life, and my hair is taking on tint agreeable to the color scheme." We say, "Ol...
