Linux For Pastors and Ministry

Some people wonder why I promote Linux. Well, there are three main things that I want to share to you why I promote Linux as “The Discipler’s Operating System”.

Linux Are Free

Linux are FREE. If you can see in “The Discipler’s Store”, there are Linux Operating System softwares, like Open Suse, Ubuntu, and Fedora, these are Linux Softwares. They are TOTALLY FREE operating systems. The only reason why we are selling them is because they are already in the disc form but you can download them for free in their respective sites.

Ubuntu (highly recommended)
Open Suse
Fedora
Mandriva

Many pastors especially those that lives in third world countries cannot afford to buy Microsoft Windows. It’s just too expensive when the pastor’s salary / honorarium / love gift(whatever you call it), is just enough for the family. This situation is very true in Asian Countries. This is why, most pastors go for the “Windows Pirated Operating System”. But what if, we can offer them a FREE, or a CHEAP fully licensed / legal operating system?


Paid and Free Bible Softwares For Everybody

Today, I want to give to you free tips where you can get totally FREE Bible Softwares and PAID Bible softwares that is worth your every penny.

Probably you already know some few things about Bible Softwares but you are having difficulties where to get it for FREE. No worry, this post is all about Bible Softwares.

Before going to my personal recommended websites for FREE Bible Softwares, I want to make a point first. I want you to know that most FREE Bible softwares that you can find over the net are not that excellent. Some are difficult to use and some are even more buggy.

Paid Bible Softwares on the other hand are quite expensive depending on how huge the content is. But in exchange, you will get a full tech support, ease of use, and an excellent experience of using the Bible Software Library.

New Church New Congregation In A New Culture

We have to consider in building a congregation that reproduce within the culture. This is a dynamic process where you won’t even know how will the Holy Spirit work within the culture.

There is no strict nor book by book instruction that we have to use in order to do this. As pastors, church planters, church leaders, we have to be innovative, open for possibilities and adjustments in case our current ministries is not working well. This should be [jtb2246] done by trusting the Holy Spirit and allow Him to work through the life of the Church.

God then will allow you as a church planter to see whom you should be working with. Having the right people in your core group in starting a church can really help you boost at the first few months.
