Holistic ministry is achieving shalom for yourself and your community. Holisti鑛i Ministarstvo postizanja shalom za sebe i svoju zajednicu. Material and spiritual needs are naturally connected. Materijalne i duhovne potrebe su, naravno, povezani. Jesus himself, when he was here, he met the physical and material needs of people, as well as the spiritual needs. Isus se, kada je ovdje, on Metropolitan fizi鑛e i materijalne potrebe ljudi, kao i duhovne potrebe.

It's very important for churches to engage in ministry to persons in welfare or in transition, and we work with both. To je vrlo va緉o za crkve sudjelovati u Ministarstvu osoba u skrbi ili u tranziciji, i radimo s obje.

If the church does not get involved, we will see more homelessness, more hunger, more crime, more violence, more drug activity, more hopelessness, more shootings, more of all that's wrong in our society today. Ako se crkva ne radi, mi 鎒mo vidjeti vi筫 besku鎛i箃vo, glad, vi筫 kriminala, vi筫 nasilja, vi筫 aktivnost lijeka, vi筫 bezna餫, vi筫 shootings, vi筫 od svega 箃o je pogre筺o u na筫m dru箃vu danas.

The church can, at least, begin a dialogue with the government about how we can have some kind of a partnership, to ensure that the whole person is dealt with in our society in a way that brings life. U crkvi se, barem, zapo鑙njem dijalog s Vladom o tome kako bismo mogli imati neku vrstu partnerskog, kako bi se osiguralo da cijeli osoba rje筧va se u na筫m dru箃vu na na鑙n da donosi 緄vot. Doing holistic ministry is hard - It's hard, in general, to work closely with individuals who are going through a lot of pain, and what makes that more difficult, is to have to do that with limited resources - limited time, limited staff. Pri holisti鑛i Ministarstvo je te筴o - Te筴o, u op鎒, da blisko sura饀ju s pojedincima koji su kroz mnogo boli, i 箃o vi筫 鑙ni da je te筴o, jest da moraju u鑙niti da s ograni鑕nih resursa - ograni鑕no vrijeme, osoblje ograni鑕na.

When you're talking about people restoration, without the hope that comes from faith, I don't see that it's possible. Kada govorimo o ljudima restauracije, bez nade koja dolazi od vjere, ne vidim da je to mogu鎒.
