Liebe Freunde,
Bald ist es soweit! 
Das langersehnte Buch “Biblische Seelsorge – Eine praktische Anleitung zur biblischen Seelsorge” steht voraussichtlich Mitte Dezember zum Versand bereit!
Aus dem Vorwort der Autoren John MacArthur und Wayne A. Mack:
Dieses Buch wurde geschrieben, um systematisch darzustellen, was die Bibel über das Verhältnis zwischen Menschen, ihren Problemen und dem lebendigen Gott lehrt.
Biblische Seelsorge beruht auf der Überzeugung, dass 1. Gottes Wort der Maßstab für unsere Seelsorge sein muss, 2. Seelsorge ein grundlegender Bestandteil der Jüngerschaftsschulung der örtlichen Gemeinde ist und 3. Gottes Volk unterwiesen werden kann und muss, effektiv Seelsorge auszuüben.
„Biblische Seelsorge“ wurde für alle im Volk Gottes geschrieben: Pastoren, Älteste und ehrenamtliche Mitarbeiter. Wir denken, dass dieses Buch das Potenzial zu einem Lehrbuch für biblische Seelsorge oder für Pastoraltheologie an weiterführenden christlichen Schulen und auf akademischem Niveau hat.
Altgediente Pastoren mit guter Ausbildung und Erfahrung wie auch Pastoren ohne akademische Ausbildung, oder nur wenig praktischer Erfahrung, können gleichermaßen von diesem Buch profitieren.
Engagierte ehrenamtliche Mitarbeiter, die ihre Fähigkeiten verbessern wollen, um Christus und seinem Volk zu dienen, werden ebenfalls viele nützliche, praktische und anregende Erkenntnisse darin finden.
Bestell das Buch “Biblische Seelsorge” in unserem Media-Shop gleich vor, um es rechtzeitig zu erhalten.
Dear friends in Christ,
The anniversary conference in Lage was a huge success. So many people came (above 750) who were welcomed by a loving and serving church. We all have fond memories of the impacting teaching by John MacArthur, the good and encouraging fellowship and the unity around the Word of God and its central subject: Jesus Christ!
Here you can find some visual impressions of the conference:

Christian Andresen writes about the outcome of the conference:
It was never our goal to extend the EBTC’s influence throughout Germany and Europe. Rather we wanted men and women to be deeply grounded in God’s Word. That they would be independently dependent upon Christ, and that they would be strong witnesses for Christ in their church and community.
This conference emphasized exactly that. John MacArthur’s teaching on the right understanding of the Lordship of Christ and our role as slaves of Christ was clear and convicting. People were in awe with the depth of teaching they received. I heard from several known leaders who attended the conference that they received solid spiritual food that will require us to respond in our attitudes and lives. The truth—God’s Word taught so that believers might understand, has a lasting impact on the individual and His kingdom!
Also check out the interview with John MacArthur on the new video section of the website.
Let us continue to pray and labour that the glory of God may be made known in our spiritually corrupt country and continent! His Word is all-sufficient to effect this, and His faithfulness the encouragement we have.
in Him.
As the 2nd EBTC weekend is underway we thank God for His rich provision of good and willing students, as well as excellent teachers. Here are some impressions from the different classes:
We also heard good messages in both chapels, yesterday and today. On friday we heard about the need to forgive as God has forgiven us (from Matthew 18:21-35) and today we were learned about the need and the nature of evangelistic prayer, from 1 Timothy 2:1-7.
Yesterday we had the 2nd year preaching class students preaching as part of their assignments. It is so good to see the growth and progress in all of them over the past months. It is very uplifting and works gratitude in all of us at the EBTC for what God is doing here.
The russian classes are also growing and doing very well. The church here in Hellersdorf is always full at such weekends. We are also thankful for the continued collaboration between the ECG Hellersdorf and the EBTC.
To God be all the glory!
John MacArthur preaching on being a slave of Christ. What a powerful message! What a blessed day so far.
Praise God for His greatness and His Word. So clear and impacting.
In Him.
In a couple of days the EBTC will have the 10th Anniversary Conference, as well as the first graduation of our Masters class, and opening of the Rheinland Extension.
Please pray that the conference would be a blessing to the guests attending. We are expecting more than 600 guests and would covet your prayers for the speakers (John MacArthur , Dave Deuel, and EBTC staff) as well as our staff—that this would be a Christ centered, God honoring conference!
If you would like to visit our website, we are planning on providing live streaming on the 14th and 15th of November http://www.ebtc-online.org/.

Liebe Geschwister,
Im Januar 2012 bieten wir euch ein Seminar zur Kirchengeschichte an. Das Thema wird sein:
„Vom Schriftprinzip zur Schriftkritik…“
- Schicksalsstunden der Theologiegeschichte von der Reformation bis zum 20. Jahrhundert
Aus dem Klappentext des Referenten:
Was ist die Bibel – und welcher Auslegungszugang wird dem Schlüsseldokument der Christenheit gerecht? Das Ringen um Schriftverständnis und Hermeneutik hat sich als wichtigster Motor der theologiegeschichtlichen Diskussion und Schicksalsfrage der Gemeinde Jesu Christi erwiesen. Unser Seminar wird maßgebliche Positionen, Weichenstellungen und Schlüsseltexte behandeln, die sich in Auseinandersetzung mit den jeweiligen geistesgeschichtlichen Rahmenbedingungen herausgebildet und – in Fluch und Segen – den Weg der Theologie geprägt haben.
Referent wird der bekannte deutsche Theologe Wolfgang Nestvogel sein.
Ein muss für alle Kirchengeschichte, Hermeneutik und Theologie Liebhaber!
Meldet euch am besten gleich hier (http://ebtc-online.org/ebtc/seminare/seminar-archiv/kirchengeschichte-jan-2012/) an!
