- During Jesus’ ministry on earth, tables—and the meals shared around them—were an important part of his school of discipleship. Professor and author Robert Karris writes, “In Luke’s Gospel, Jesus is either going to a meal, at a meal or coming from a meal.” New Testament scholar N. T. Wright says, “When Jesus himself wanted to explain to his disciples what his forthcoming death was all about, he didn’t give them a theory, he gave them a meal.” When Jesus invites his followers to the table, the meal is open to all—men and women, slave and free, Jew and Greek.

- Every human sees the world through their own unique and distinct cultural lens. But what does that mean? What is a cultural lens and how does that affect how we interact with our neighbors and our brothers and sisters in the faith? How do I know what my own cultural lens is and how it differs from others? How can we as a USMB family seek to understand each other better when our cultural lenses are very different? There is a significant cue in what John encounters in Revelation 7 and the implications that come out of it. After John […]
- With 30 churches and almost 10,000 members in three countries, Grace Tabernacle Ministries (GTM) has grown significantly since its humble beginning in Kenya with seven Congolese refugees in 2009. Founding pastor Emmanuel Musinga, who now pastors in Indianapolis, Indiana, borrowed $300 from a former primary school teacher to build a roof for the fledgling church. “The Bible says, ‘Don’t despise the small beginnings,’” Musinga says. “Just listen to the voice of God, and follow the passion that God has given to you.” Musinga’s passion is for church planting, leadership development and children’s education, and today, the church he founded has […]

Cohorts are online learning communities designed for pastors, ministry leaders, church members, parents and anyone who wants to grow as a disciple of Jesus. Whether you're leading a church, raising a family, serving in ministry or simply seeking to grow in your faith, there's a cohort designed to help you learn alongside others with shared interests and practical experience.
Cohorts are FREE to all participants. The only cost is for books or other materials, if recommended by the cohort leader. Most cohorts meet online every other week for about one hour over the course of three months.
The next cohort session begins in late August and early September. The full fall lineup will be available online soon.
Find the cohort that's right for you, connect with others and grow in your faith and leadership. We look forward to learning with you this fall!
If you have additional questions, please email Desirae Rolen.
Pastors' wives – Kelsey Ensz
Is serving as a pastor‘s wife your calling? Or is serving in ministry simply the calling of your spouse? Regardless, all believers are called to embody certain ways of living. We will look at 1 Peter 3:1-8 each week and be challenged in our calling to inherit a blessing.
Having been married for 27 years to a pastor, Kelsey values connection with other ministry wives who understand the unique challenges and joys of this calling. Her husband, Nathan, serves as lead pastor at Kingwood Bible Church in Salem, Oregon. She serves in various ministries of the church. Kelsey and Nathan are transitioning to an empty nest and recently became grandparents!
Cohort will meet every Tuesday at 8 p.m. CST beginning Sept 1.
Sept 1, 8, 15, 22 & 29, Oct. 20 & 27, Nov. 3
