This series provides important “refresher” teaching geared towards pastors and church leaders that serve to underscore the vital necessity of focusing ministry on The Good News (The Kerygma), Sound Doctrine (The Didache) and The Work of the Holy Spirit (The Parakletis). The emphasis upon these topics have provided the foundation and structure for pastoral ministry in the local church since early in the church’s expansion. Dr. Terry Cross brings not only an excellent historical and theological awareness of to the topic, but blends it with his many years of pastoral ministry in the local church to provide insight into practical daily application.
