When I finished my training at Trinity Baptist College, I taught school for one year at a nearby Christian school and then went on full-time deputation. The year that I spent teaching Christian school was a good transition into our pre-field ministry because it allowed me to really begin preparing for presenting our ministry to the many churches that we would visit. During that time I was able to set up meetings, purchase a video projector, create a video presentation, have prayer cards printed, and the myriad of other things that become necessary in the process of getting to the field. As I look back on that time I realize that the time I took in preparation and the three years of full-time deputation that followed were really the real beginning of my graduate work. It was a four year degree from the school of hard knocks in what works and what doesn't work when it comes to deputation. I think I passed a lot of those classes, but I have to also admit there are a few things I would have done differently. It is my hope and prayer that the information on this website may help the readers use the technologies that are available to accomplish their pre-field ministry more effectively.
