الوعظ من أجل نمو الكنيسة
by Dr. Dwayne Mercer on June 17th, 2026
قال لي قس مسن ذات مرة: "إذا كنت تحب شعبك، فسوف يسامحونك على الكثير من العظات السيئة". كانت هذه من أسوأ النصائح التي تلقيتها على الإطلاق. لن يمر الجميع بأزمة خلال فترة خدمتك؛ ومع ذلك، سيسمعك الجميع وأنت تعظ - ويتوقعون أن يتغذوا روحيًا.نقرأ في الكتاب المقدس: "وَلكِنْ بِدُونِ إِيمَانٍ لاَ يُمْكِنُ إِرْضَاؤُهُ، لأَنَّهُ يَجِبُ أَنَّ الَّذِي يَأْتِي إِلَى اللهِ يُؤْمِنُ بِأَنَّهُ مَوْجُودٌ، وَأَنَّهُ ي...

Creating Positive Change
by Dr. Dwayne Mercer on June 10th, 2026
It's been said there are three types of leaders: risk takers, care takers, and undertakers. Few things in life are more risky or difficult than bringing about a new order of things. George Barna says, "Church growth is not so much a formula as it is a series of creative and sensitive responses to a changing environment".Most people reject change of any kind. John Maxwell said recently, "Leaders ha... Read More

إحداث تغيير إيجابي
by Dr. Dwayne Mercer on June 10th, 2026
يُقال إن هناك ثلاثة أنواع من القادة: المجازفون، والمعتنون، وحفارو القبور. هناك أشياء قليلة في الحياة أكثر خطورة أو صعوبة من إحداث نظام جديد للأشياء. يقول جورج بارنا: "نمو الكنيسة ليس مجرد صيغة بقدر ما هو سلسلة من الاستجابات الإبداعية والحساسة لبيئة متغيرة".يرفض معظم الناس التغيير من أي نوع. قال جون ماكسويل مؤخرًا: "القادة يكرهون التغيير مثل أي شخص آخر، ما لم يكن فكرتهم". هذا التصريح وحده يعطينا بع...

by Dr. Dwayne Mercer on June 10th, 2026
S-a spus că există trei tipuri de lideri: cei care își asumă riscuri, cei care doar întrețin lucrurile și cei care le îngroapă. Puține lucruri în viață sunt mai riscante sau mai dificile decât instaurarea unei noi ordini.

Criando Mudanças Positivas
by Dr. Dwayne Mercer on June 10th, 2026
Diz-se que existem três tipos de líderes: os que assumem riscos, os que apenas cuidam e os coveiros. Poucas coisas na vida são mais arriscadas ou difíceis do que estabelecer uma nova ordem.
