Jim’s big news

After 30 years of serving on staff in the local church, 17 of those at the greatest church in the world (Church On The Move) under the greatest pastor in the world (Pastor Willie George) I am going full time with Jim Wideman Ministries. That’s right, you read correctly. My pastor is in agreement with this and I have his blessing. I’ll still base out of Tulsa and my family and I will still attend COTM. I believe this is God’s plan for my life and that I have a mandate from God to help other churches go to their next level of ministry. How am I going to do this? In 3 main ways:

1. Consulting- I’ve had the privilege of being exposed to every area of ministry in a local church in addition to leading one of America’s leading children’s ministries. I’m available for on-site consulting in any area you need help. Whether you want me to come in once or once a month, I want to help you gear up for growth and excellence. Special rates are available for multiple visits. If you need another perspective put me on your staff as a part-time employee.

2. Conferences & Training- I’m available to hold a Children’s Ministry Conference at your church as well as seminars on Time Management, Volunteer Recruiting, Leadership & Parenting.

3. Speaking at churches & conferences- Need a guest to challenge people to get involved, or to teach on the importance of children & the family. I’m available.

Contact me today at brojim@jimwideman.com or give my assistant Sheila a call @ (918) 477-2268 ext. 1. I’m now booking for the rest of 2007 & 2008 and I’d love to help you and your church.

Excited about the future,
Bro. Jim

When someone throws a spear

I just finished reading “A Tale of Three Kings”. I bought this book about five years ago when an evangelist came to our church and told me that every pastor needs to read it. He was right. In fact, I make it a practice to read it once a year.

Question. What do you do when someone throws a spear at you in your ministry? You know what spears look like. Spears hurt.

We know what comes natural. The natural thing it is to pick up the spear and throw it right back! It demonstrates that you are courageous, you stand for what’s right, you’re a defender of the faith. After all, sometimes spears come even when you didn’t do anything wrong.

David understood that. Mad King Saul was trying to kill him at every corner. How did he respond?
