Entrusted: Sharing the gospel and our lives
1 Thessalonians 2
A gospel ministry that is rich in relationships – like the apostle Paul and the Thessalonian church – can be deeply rewarding, but rarely comes without challenge. The Faithfulness in Ministry Conference 2023 will focus on how those entrusted with the gospel can sustain a fruitful ministry in which the gospel and lives are shared, and where church workers and those they serve are protected. The theme will be addressed through the following topics:
- Pastoral Consultation: regular, professional support for ministry workers. Apart from being a powerful tool for safeguarding our lives and ministries, engaging in pastoral consultation follows Recommendation 16.5 of the Royal Commission into Institutional Responses to Child Sexual Abuse.
- Protective Behaviours: protection for children and other vulnerable people. In addition to being beneficial to our church and wider communities, this also addresses Royal Commission Recommendation 16.4.
