Service in the Book of Philippians
The First Century Church The Great Mystery Leadership and Service The Fellowlaborers’ House (2 Baier) Zolezzi, Steve 12/31/2011 12/31/2011
This teaching looks at the lack of service in the Philippian church due to wrong practice regarding the Mystery by not serving one another. Jesus Christ, Timothy, and Epaphroditus are given as examples of people who helped correct this by demonstrating right practice in the area of service to help others live the Mystery and walk in love. If the Mystery is going to live, it takes people having a great heart to serve and give, not being wrapped up in themselves, but looking for needs in the Body to bless the people they are with and bring out their best. Service starts with a decision to stand fast together so we can do the utmost for the highest and serve the Word of life.

The fellowship on Friday evening, December 30th, was also open to believers who were not participating in the whole weekend and many came to join in the Word and the fun that evening.

Leadership and Service Love Witnessing and Undershepherding Greenkill Conference Center Gilmore, Michael 04/14/2007 04/14/2007
This teaching looks at various usages of words translated “comfort” to show the things that bring true comfort. The contrast between genuine words of comfort and smooth, flattering words is presented. Michael states that anyone who knows any of God’s Word can bring comfort to people and exhorts them not to hold back in doing so.
Colossians 2:2
The Great Mystery Leadership and Service Love Greenkill Conference Center Carr, Jerry 04/13/2007 04/13/2007
This teaching opens the 2007 Spring Advance and shows the context of the theme verse, Colossians 2:2, which is the Mystery. The Apostle Paul’s ministry was to serve, preach, live, and make known the Mystery. God’s heart, Paul’s heart, and Jerry Carr’s heart for the weekend is that believers would understand the Mystery, not only in head but in heart, be united in love, and be certain of the knowledge of the One Body and Christ in us to the end of living it.
A Life of Pressure
The First Century Church Leadership and Service Greenkill Conference Center Armstrong, Joe 06/30/2016 06/30/2016
In this teaching, Joe handles the pressure God’s Word says believers will have in this life. He covers how, because we have Christ within, we represent the absent Christ here on earth and that we will be treated like the absent Christ as we pose a threat to the Adversary’s kingdom. He portrays examples of Paul’s life and some of the pressures he encountered as he and the believers stood on God’s Word and moved God’s Word. Shows how these believers continued to speak God’s Word with great boldness and joy. He highlights Paul’s example of leadership being up front with the people and taking the pressure on. Lastly, he demonstrates the importance of bearing up under pressure and continuing to move even when the pressures on.
