There had been a call to establish a Master Ministry\u00a0 program inEast Nepal\u00a0for the last two years.\u00a0 We answered the call this March.\u00a0 God gave us a great response and a good learning experience and bonding times.\u00a0 There were great hunger and good potential in the students. It had been worth it all, our prayers, time and expenses.\u00a0 Here are some brief testimonies:<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
Gioija Kumar, youth worker for 13 years:<\/div>\n
\u201cI have family burden \u2026 had known no option for study \u2026 prayed continuously.\u00a0 Praise the Lord, I got the opportunity now. \u00a0I have learnt so many things and among them the inductive Bible study.\u00a0 Now I have been able to do deep Bible study and teach others the right way.\u201d<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
Peter Mohan Limbu, ministering in a Brethren Church:<\/div>\n
I have studied BTh course, but the MMin course is more effective, powerful and practical.\u00a0 I learn how to discover the background of the text, how to determine the main theme and how to construct a thematic outline.\u00a0 It helps me to understand more details of the Bible.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
Purna Kumal, Co-ordinator of AWANA clubs, E. Nepal:<\/div>\n
\u201cInductive Bible Study was Wow!\u00a0 What a privilege to observe, interpret and apply in our life.\u00a0 We went through 3 John and Philemon.\u00a0 These texts we will never forget, because we went so nicely.\u00a0 Thank you, sister Ho, for her hard work on it and thank you all who are praying for this training and for their help and support.\u201d<\/div>\n

<\/div>\n
Achyut Gautam\u00a0from Kalabanjar Baptist Church:<\/div>\n
As I attend the classes from the beginning, I got many blessings from the Lord.\u00a0 The Inductive Bible Study helps me to kniow how to get the deeper meaning from text and how to observe, interpret and apply that in my ministry for teaching.\u00a0 Similarly, it helps to paraphrase and get the main idea of any text easily \u2026 would be helpful to take out the preaching item.\u00a0 I suppose it will help a lot to strengthen members of my church in the Word of God.\u00a0 Finally, I want to thank ASM to provide us this opportunity to be strengthened in the Word of God.\u00a0 I am very hopeful that this and this kind of program will be very effective to equip and assist to bring the Kingdom into Nepal too.\u00a0 Thank you.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
Megotohe Angamii:<\/div>\n
\u201cGod is His own time brought me here to train me and sharpen my weapons and skills to go further for His Kingdom.\u00a0 The Lord helped me to dig the treasures kept for me.\u00a0 It was something new and exciting too.\u00a0 The courses were practical rather than academic.\u00a0 One thing I like most was, whatever we learnt, were re-producible, especially the materials, I can use at anytime, everywhere in my ministry.\u00a0 The courses re-shape my life again and give me new perspective to work for His kingdom.\u00a0 I am excited to go back to share the blessings to my church members\u2026. God did the right thing at the right time in the right place.\u201d<\/div>\n
