Mount Aery Baptist Church, a 77-year old, 1400 disciple African-American congregation, had recently experienced rapid growth.  As a result, its leadership (Pastor and Officers) was often unable to adequately address the numerous congregational needs in a timely manner.  Also, of great concern within the congregation was the qualifications needed to address those needs.  The author asserted that if lay disciples received the appropriate training along with opportunities to apply these collaborative teachings, their ministry effectiveness and understanding would increase."],"rights_statement_tesim":["https://rightsstatements.org/vocab/InC/1.0/"],"thumbnail_path_ss":"/assets/work-a3b75da7abded620ab321410c80d102e5e2417b71c54de7ba7d4b0363da904f7.png","suppressed_bsi":false,"actionable_workflow_roles_ssim":["f6c99b2a-5c91-4444-8946-01a1837f1fd8-default-approving","f6c99b2a-5c91-4444-8946-01a1837f1fd8-default-depositing","f6c99b2a-5c91-4444-8946-01a1837f1fd8-default-managing"],"workflow_state_name_ssim":["deposited"],"member_of_collections_ssim":["United Theological Seminary"],"member_of_collection_ids_ssim":["f0f9c284-37b6-440c-96ab-39e6509e82ee"],"visibility_ssi":"open","admin_set_tesim":["Metadata Only"],"account_cname_tesim":["rim.ir.atla.com"],"human_readable_type_tesim":["Etd"],"read_access_group_ssim":["work_editor","public"],"edit_access_group_ssim":["admin"],"edit_access_person_ssim":["ckarpinski@atla.com"],"_version_":1791128273536679936,"timestamp":"2024-02-17T06:57:11.860Z","score":1.0},{"system_create_dtsi":"2023-10-11T20:57:23Z","system_modified_dtsi":"2024-02-17T06:50:56Z","has_model_ssim":["Etd"],"id":"2ce73f3a-296e-41a6-b1d2-56da027b3535","accessControl_ssim":["4b904521-923d-4f8c-ad70-f83708aa7d99"],"depositor_ssim":["ckarpinski@atla.com"],"depositor_tesim":["ckarpinski@atla.com"],"title_tesim":["Music as ministry in an urban African-American church"],"date_uploaded_dtsi":"2023-10-11T20:57:22Z","date_modified_dtsi":"2024-02-16T23:26:21Z","isPartOf_ssim":["f6c99b2a-5c91-4444-8946-01a1837f1fd8"],"hasEmbargo_ssim":["5944a38f-2261-459e-8944-52af6d051c51"],"hasLease_ssim":["d2ddbbe3-2716-4075-9c6f-4863428ec5bc"],"show_pdf_viewer_tesim":["1"],"show_pdf_download_button_tesim":["1"],"institution_tesim":["Atla RIM"],"degree_tesim":["Unknown"],"degree_granting_institution_tesim":["United Theological Seminary"],"advisor_tesim":["W Franklyn Richardson","Wyatt Tee Walker"],"year_tesim":["2001"],"resource_type_tesim":["Unknown"],"types_tesim":["Text"],"creator_tesim":["James W Cobbs"],"publisher_tesim":["United Theological Seminary (OH)"],"subject_tesim":["Rivermont Baptist Church (Lynchburg, Va)","African American churches","Music in worship"],"language_tesim":["English"],"abstract_tesim":["This project focuses on the members who participate in the music ministry of the Rivermont Baptist Church in Lynchburg, Virginia.
