When I interviewed Jerry Moen, pastor of the Nazarene church in McMinnville, Oregon, for a chapter in the book, Best Practices of Growing Churches: Profiles and Conversations with Ministry Leaders, he talked about a burnout experience early in his ministry. After graduating from college in 1980 he served in a series of youth ministry assignments until 1992, when, discouraged and exhausted, he quit due to what he remembered as 'some kind of burnout or meltdown.'

Bedrock of Christian Faith
by Filimão Chambo

The Resurrection of Jesus Christ is the bedrock of the Christian faith. God's plan for salvation throughout the Scriptures includes not only the suffering and sacrificial death of Christ for the salvation of the world, but also the victorious Resurrection for our justification (Genesis 3:15, Isaiah 53, Mark 9:31, John 2:18-21, Romans 3:24, 10:9, 1 Corinthians 15).
