EDUCATION FOR MINISTRY
Top twelve reasons for joining EFM, from EFM students.
- EFM teaches me to articulate my faith.
- There's more fellowship in EFM than in other group I know.
- You laugh, you cry, you learn how to play the nose flute.
- Like college without somebody checking up on you.
- It's a core spiritual community.
- It's like chocolate every day.
- Almost better than sex.
- They made me come, but I'm glad I did.
- Every week, it's like coming home.
- EFM has deepened my faith and understanding more than anything
else in my life.
- I go home energized.
- Sunday services will never be the same.
- And one final comment: EFM materials should contain a label that reads: "Warning! this may change your life."
