COMING THIS FALL
Tenative Start Date: November 2007
"WHAT EVERY PASTOR OUGHT TO KNOW"
LED by: Dr. ADRIAN ROGERS
|
- Dr. Adrian Rogers had wanted to use his last 10 yrs. of ministry to share his pastoral experience with other pastors.
- He was able to create and host the first two conferences before his death.
- The Adrian Rogers Pastor Training Institute (ARPTI), founded in 2003, as a means to share Dr. Rogers’ fifty plus years of pastoral wisdom and experience with pastors worldwide.
- While the messenger has finished his earthly race, his message will continue on through the Pastor Training Institute.
- We have negotiated with ARPTI, through the Southern Baptist Bivocational Ministers Association to purchase the DVD's and workbooks for the conference at a reduced price for bivocational ministers.
- The tenative total cost for bivocational ministers is going to be $40.00 for the entire 8 hour Adrian Rogers led workshop.
- Just the Workbooks cost us $38.00 each, plus the DVD's, refreshments and facility costs, so we are doing our best to keep the cost to a minimum.
- The conference cost is $65.00 for vocational ministers.
- Our vision is to pass on Dr. Adrian Rogers’ passion for preaching and evangelism and to maintain his legacy and resources for future generations.
- We will offer it in several Louisiana regional settings in several formats. Associational Groups may choose format.
- (1 day Conference (Condensed Version 8 hours)
- (2 Conferences of 4 hours each)
- (3 Conferences of 2.75 hours each)
- (4 Conferences of 2 hours each)
- Conferences can be day or evening time frames
