As a Christian, I would like to make you aware of a ministry that may be of help to you and your Church or Christian ministry. I am in a unique season of my life where I have the opportunity to strengthen the Body of Christ, which has been my desire. The church has released me to spend up to 20% of my time to travel for the purpose of encouraging and strengthening spiritual leaders, small churches, Christian ministries, and individuals in the Body of Christ. We refer to this ministry as our “Barnabas Outreach”. When meeting with pastors and leaders, the Lord has been using me to pray with them, impart to them along with personal prophecy, encourage them through Biblical scriptures and principles, and help them deal with the stresses of ministry. The Lord has used me to bring encouraging messages to congregations and groups of people, setting them free of hindrances and helping them to attain a new level of intimacy with God and Christian outreach.
I have also been teaching a seminar called “Dealing with Stress”. The concept is that we add to the stress that we encounter in life (by violating Biblical principles and scriptures). In the seminar, we learn how to stop contributing to the stress in our lives. I teach general principles and scriptures that apply to most sources of stress. Then the group attending chooses 3 specific topics which we discuss in detail. The remaining topics are covered in their notebook, which they can refer to later. This way, the seminar is more relevant to those attending. Some of the topics covered are: Breaking Undesirable Habits; Working Our Way To Financial Freedom; Improving Good Relationships and Restoring Broken Relationships; Managing Anger; Dealing With Abusive Language From Children or Adults; Raising Strong Willed Children; Training Your Children; Making the Most of Teachable Moments (among adults as well as children); and Moving Through The Grieving Process Towards Healing (Reconciliation).
Please know that I do not desire to make any profit or wage from this ministry. I request my expenses (travel, lodging if required, etc.) be paid. I am happy to stay in the home of Christians instead of hotels. The cost of publishing seminar books is $10.00 each.
If our “Barnabas Outreach” sounds like it would be a blessing to your church or ministry, please phone me at (610) 767-2482 or email me at giveword@ptd.net so that we can work out the unique approach for you and your needs. A package of references and sample messages is also available upon request.
Sincerely in Christ Jesus,
Pastor David Farnholtz
