In the last 2 weeks I’ve been reviewing the goals that I set for the
discipleship classes in the beginning of this year. The theology of redemption
classes that we taught during this year were a fundamental base to present who God
is and what he is doing though his redemptive plan, to a group of young men and
women. Most of the students could not tell me the name of 3 books in the Bible
when we started.
The question that I kept asking myself during these 2 trimesters of 22
classes in 26 weeks, was what can I do better? And how can I present God and
Jesus to these guys and their needs to have a personal relationship with them?
After every week of class was over, I took time after to analyze if I
presented through that week of teaching “God
and his desire to established a relationship thought Jesus Christ” to
each one of the guys and girls that were part of that class, for both, the basketball
and baseball programs ages 13 and up.
But I think that somehow I forgot about the work that God was doing “in
me”. As I look back to this year, I can say that my goals were met in many
different ways. After many hours of “praying, reading, writing about God and
presenting him though the Bible, most of our guys had improve their knowledge
about God and what he is doing. For me I have come to know God and experience
him in ways that I never did before.
Have I been very busy teaching about God this year?
Yes I have.
But more important he has taught me during this process, who he is and
how he is inviting me and you to help him every day in his plan.
I have definitely been learning too!
