What does the Bible have to say about these questions?<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In this joint symposium hosted by the Samurai Projects and Christ Bible Seminary, faculty members of CBS will address the vital topic of the call of God to ministry. Christian ministry is hard, and every year some leave their ministries. In this context, it is important to have clear teaching from Scripture about the nature of God\u2019s call and how it is experienced in practice.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you are interested in the possibility of vocational Christian ministry (at whatever stage of life) or you are already in Christian ministry and looking to raise up a new generation of workers, this symposium is for you!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Please mark your calendars for\u00a0<strong>September 7, 2024<\/strong>!
