Quotes from Joel Comiskey

Caring and prayer … are the keys to starting new groups.

Daily devotional time is the single most important discipline in the Christian life. During that daily time, Jesus transforms us, feeds us, and gives us new revelation. On the other hand, not spending sufficient time with God can bring the agony of defeat.

Mi Padre es glorificado si dais mucho fruto, mostrando así que sois mis discípulos".

Iglesias efectivas diseñan su visión y entrenamiento para cumplir con el objetivo de plantar nuevas iglesias.
