Experience I gave my heart to the Lord a few months after being married during a revival meeting. A few weeks later I received the baptism of the Holy Ghost, and I have not been the same since!
In those twenty five years we have only attended one church (Harvest Church), and there I have served there as an Elder for fourteen years. We minister in song with the choir and worship team. I am also the new member’s class coordinator, men's ministry director, and the Harvest Riders motorcycle ministry president.
In 1993 the Lord called me to "...preach the Gospel where ever I open the door..." I have had the privilege of ministering God's Word to churches in Oklahoma, Texas, Louisiana and Arkansas. In those meetings we have seen the Lord save, heal, deliver, and fill people will His Spirit.
Organizations I am ordained through Harvest Church, and with the World Harvest Ministerial Fellowship. I also am a licensed minister with the State of Oklahoma,

I am taking an introductory to christianity course and i need to pick a topic for a research paper. I have to focus on an event. I want to write on the reformation, but i need to pick a particular event that occured during the reformation. Can you give me some examples of events that occured during the reformation that i can write on?
Answer Rose,

But this is only if you promise to send my a draft of your final work. Okay? You can send it as a question through this forum (Allexperts).
Here are a few suggestion I have...
1. Bio on one of the earliest Reformation fathers, Johannes Hus. Primarily the effect the "papal schism" had upon him.
2. The invention of movable type and it's effect on the Reformation fathers zeal for translation the Holy Bible into the common languages of the people (which was considered heresy by Rome).
3. The social connection of the Reformation to the period known as the "renaissance".
4. The sited reasons the Reformation fathers "protested" against Rome. I.e.: the sale of indulgences, the buying and selling church positions, devotion to Mary, ect...
