# Pioneer Meeting
|
||
|
||
### Have a regular schedule
|
||
Balance is required
|
||
*Well Duh*
|
||
Acts 19: 9 - 9 But when some stubbornly refused to believe, speaking injuriously about The Way before the crowd, he withdrew from them and separated the disciples from them, giving talks daily in the school auditorium of Ty·ranʹnus.
|
||
Study Note on "school auditorium of Tyrannus": Pauls schedule was likely 11am to 4pm. He had a regular schedule that he stuck with.
|
||
Early in the morning, early in the day, early in the week, early in the month, early in the year.
|
||
|
||
### Schedule a specific time each month to engage in various forms of the ministry
|
||
*Well, we're failing on that one aren't we*
|
||
Yea but things still work so don't question it.
|
||
|
||
Acts 20:20,21 - 20 while I did not hold back from telling you any of the things that were profitable nor from teaching you publicly and from house to house. 21 But I thoroughly bore witness both to Jews and to Greeks about repentance toward God and faith in our Lord Jesus.
|
||
Publicly, House to House, Letter, Phone, Informal
|
||
If anything mechanical falls out of balance, then it eventually falls apart. Why would humans be any different? If we fall out of balance, eventually we will fall apart.
|
||
|
||
Most people tend to find door to door ministry to be the most difficult. How to help?
|
||
Practice
|
||
Workshops
|
||
Take Breaks
|
||
Keep things simple
|
||
OD Book: Lesson 9, Par 6,7
|
||
Pray for help, Jehovah will help us.
|
||
We aren't alone up there.
|
||
Pray, Hope in Jehovah, and Act.
|
||
|
||
### Show Insight When Facing Economic Difficulties
|
||
Phillipians 4:12 - 12 I know how to be low on provisions and how to have an abundance. In everything and in all circumstances I have learned the secret of both how to be full and how to hunger, both how to have an abundance and how to do without.
|
||
Paul faced economic hardships, but learned the secret on how to deal with it. The secret? Contentment.
|
||
This is why we need to keep a simple life, it helps us keep our joy in the ministry
|
||
|
||
### Have a Good Spiritual Routine
|
||
What can help us not to neglect our spiritual routine?
|
||
Add study to our regular routine/schedule
|
||
2 Tim 4:9,13 - 9 Do your utmost to come to me shortly. 13 When you come, bring the cloak I left at Troʹas with Carpus, and the scrolls, especially the parchments.
