Notes:
We are very interested in relocating to a church in Texas, Alabama, Tennessee or Florida, but Will consider other areas as well. Also will consider associate positions. I became a Christian in 1985 after studying with a Christian roommate in college. I was encouraged to preach by members after regular participation in a Sunday night preaching rotation. I enjoy personal evangelism, teaching in small groups and encouraging people to find and use their talents. In addition to church work I am involved in various community organizations which helps me grow in my ministry and personal life. I am also pursuing a Masters in Bible from the Bear Valley Bible Institute in Denver, Colorado in a program that is designed for ministers working full time and living long distance from Denver, thus it will not interfere with my local work with a congregation.
In the last year and a half I have conducted eleven studies that resulted in 7 baptisms. During seven years in Canada I baptized 32 people. I have authored two books and several articles for brotherhood publications and two training manuals (non-published).
A resume packet with references and sample sermons is available upon request.

Please find my enclosed vita, submitted for your review. With demonstrated expertise in teaching, preaching, and serving, I am certain that I would add immediate value to your congregation.
I have been a member of the church for over 30 years and have worshipped God from Florida to Alaska to Japan and many points in between. I currently worship at East Main Church of Christ, in Murfreesboro, TN.
Following serving our country in Operation Desert Storm and traveling to 15 countries around the world, I committed to earn a Masters and then a Ph.D. to prepare myself to teach Bible. I earned a Master of Arts in Religion in September 2001 and am currently working on a Ph.D. in theology and hope to finish by 2015.
My goal is to gain employment with a congregation like yours as a minister or similar position where I can put my education and other skills to work for God and the church.

Notes:
Hi, my name is Bryan Fojtasek. I have a passion for ministry and feel especially called to helping individuals deepen their faith as they journey on the path of discipleship. . My coursework focuses in on helping individuals develop a Christ-like identity for a lifetime of discipleship. For me, the cross is the central theme of Christianity and serves as the basis for my ministry. The Christian mission, properly understood, is to help individuals take steps closer to the cross as they journey together in a positive, safe, and Christ-centered community. As an evangelist and minister, my goal will be to meet Christians where they are at in their faith and help them engage their faith individually, in the context of peer groups, and most importantly in the home. For children and teens, the most important setting for Christian formation is the home, and the most important Christian leaders are the parents. My hope is to create a ministry in which parents, youth leaders, and teenagers work together to help form students for a lifetime of faith and discipleship. I believe in asking teenagers, families, and volunteers to sacrifice in order to serve God with everything they have, but I am also very committed to meeting individuals where they are. For me, a successful ministry is one where every person is taking significant steps in their faith as they journey together on the path of (or towards) discipleship.
My area of interest here at Princeton is in youth, church, and culture--how the world around us gives us metaphors, examples, and impressions that all point us to Christ. I would love to serve as a youth, campus, family, young adult, or education minister. My fiancée and I are getting married this summer and both of us love youth ministry. We hope you will consider us if a position opens. Earliest date Available: Sept 2009.

Helping My Church Grow
I've been very lucky in that the first congregation I preached at out of college experienced significant growth. Being a young minister fresh out of college I only had a small part in it. Team work and the input of several talented members made it possible. During this time someone on the preacher's committee told me of another time when they had doubled their attendance in a two year time span. A former minister had used a type of friendship ministry with great success. I listened intently and used it to reach several people in the community.
Since that time I've been focused on growth. I've been very lucky because God has put me in a position to see first hand instances of significant growth in congregations as a member and as a minister. I've also witnessed mistakes that have negatively affected their growth. God can cause great things to happen, I Cor. 3:6. God sometimes gives us the increase but we cause the decline.
I believe in the victorious church of Daniel 2:44, 45. I try to encourage members to have a mustard seed type of faith. At Harding they taught us to preach series through books in the Bible. I've developed several of these series, Philippians — The Ideal Church and How We Can Become an Ideal Church, the Gospel of Luke — A Heart Like Jesus and the Gospel of John — A Clear Choice In a World Full of Religions. Also I have a class series, Mark — Introducing Newcomers to Jesus, an evangelism study method.
The most important lesson I've learned is that God can do great things if our faith is in Him and not ourselves, Numbers 14:6-9. Jesus can accomplish great deeds in our life, Phil. 4:13. Our lack of faith is the only real obstacle to this, Mark 6:5, 6.
