Planting Churches in Portugal
April 8, 2024
7:30 pm
Main Speaker:
Diego Lopes, Paulo Carvalho,Rafael Ribas
Series
Europe Needs the Gospel
Description
According to some recent reports, the vision for planting new gospel churches is greater in Portugal than in many other European countries, with an encouraging number of evangelical churches there either thinking and praying about planting new churches or already doing it. A number of our EMF missionaries in Portugal have been involved in church plants in recent years, and some of them are planting new churches at the moment. What are the challenges? How do you go about planting a new church in Portugal? What encouragements have there been?

 The aims of the webinar are:

  1. To share with people some of the challenges and encouragements of gospel work in Portugal today;
  2. To encourage people to pray with greater understanding for the progress of the gospel in Portugal;
  3. To highlight the importance of planting new churches as a biblical and effective strategy for gospel growth.

The Training of Gospel Workers in Europe
December 4, 2023
7:30 pm
Main Speaker:
Bill James, Clive Bowsher, Diego Lopes, Pál Borzasi
Series
Europe Needs the Gospel
Description
Europe needs thousands more gospel workers! How and where are they going to get the training that they will almost certainly need? And in today's increasingly online world, what are the pros and cons of online training?

Training is an important biblical concept, whether that's in the home, in the Christian life in general, or in the church.

The Lord Jesus Christ urged his first followers to pray for more gospel workers. Most of tomorrow's gospel workers will need training. That training may well take place at a seminary or Bible college, but it may be online or local church based.

 

 The aims of the webinar are:

  1. To explore the vital role of appropriate training for today's (and tomorrow's) gospel workers (pastors, church planters, etc.);
  2. To give an overview of some of the many training opportunities on offer today, and to weigh their relative strengths and weaknesses;
  3. To encourage Christians and churches to understand the importance of training for gospel workers and to support that training with their prayers and financial help, etc

The Gospel in the Balkans
September 11, 2023
7:30 pm
Main Speaker:
[Names removed for security reasons]
Series
Europe Needs the Gospel
Description
In almost every period of history, the Balkan region seems to have witnessed great trouble and unrest, and in the 20th Century no part of Europe suffered more tribulation than this region. Many countries in the region are very religious, but from the viewpoint of Bible-believing Christianity, the Balkans must be considered to be the hardest region in Europe. In 8 out of the 11 Balkan countries, there are fewer than 1% evangelical Christians. But in the last 20-30 years there have been dramatic changes, and opportunities for the gospel.

 The aims of the webinar are:

  1. To introduce us to some of the Balkan countries – their geography, history, culture, distinctive characteristics, etc.
  2. To paint for us a picture of some of the Balkan countries from a spiritual and gospel perspective.
  3. To help us to understand the spiritual situation in some of the Balkan countries, so that we pray more (and better) for the Balkan peoples, and do more to support faithful gospel work throughout the Balkan region.

Does Calvinism Kill Mission?
June 5, 2023
7:30 pm
Main Speaker:
Garry Williams, Davy Ellison, José Moreno Berrocal
Series
Europe Needs the Gospel
Description
'If the doctrine of predestination is true, and if God has already decided who's going to be saved and who's not, then why pray, why evangelise, why bother?' That's what a lot of Christians think. But the clear teaching of the Bible, a right understanding of 'reformed theology', and 2,000 years of church history give the lie to those common caricatures of Calvinism.

 The aims of the webinar are:

  1. To help us to understand why a lot of Christians believe that Calvinism kills mission;
  2. To demonstrate—from the Bible, from good theology, and from church history—why Christians who believe that are wrong;
  3. To encourage us to renew our commitment both to 'reformed theology' and to the Church's great mission.
