It was by divine providence that I was asked to teach the spider honor at the recent Union Camporee and it was so fun to teach an honor. I wondered if there was a preaching honor. After a google search and two people encouraging me to learn this honor I came across the AY Christian Preaching Honor. I am so blessed to have this opportunity to teach it and serve in the local church. I am praying to Jesus to learn more about this honor and to be a blessing to pathfinder clubs by encouraging our pathfinders and master guides to preach the Gospel of Jesus Christ.
Matthew 24:14 - And this gospel of the kingdom shall be preached in all the world for a witness unto all nations; and then shall the end come.
Overview
Chances are your Pathfinder Director, pastor, or group leader is going to ask you to preach at church or a group function sooner or later -- after all, you're seeing how God is calling you to be a leader at your church and in your world. So, learn techniques that empower you to preach BETTER -- so that not only do you feel better about yourself and your presentation, but you also get to experience the joy of reaching people more successfully! Let's preach!
