Their Need is Bigger Than My Fear - Lynne Kelly
Expositors Collective
Ongoing Goals: Discipline and Simplified Teaching
Lynne outlines current aims: disciplined study, simplifying notes, teaching Romans, and mentoring the next generation of women teachers.
Lynne Kelly shares her journey from hesitant Bible teacher to confident, disciplined instructor. Once unsure of her abilities and overly dependent on supplementary materials, Lynne describes how she began to grow in both skill and conviction through intentional study and training. Her cross-cultural ministry experience in Uganda and New Zealand, together with years of church planting in the USA, gives her a practical, discipleship-focused approach to teaching.
Four years ago, she took a decisive step by enrolling in theological courses, determined to strengthen her understanding and teaching. Through this process, Lynne learned to overcome fear and self-doubt, moving from nervous apologies to confidence grounded in her calling.
She also reflects on the unique challenges faced by women in ministry, particularly within traditional church settings, and how she now encourages other women to develop their gifts and teaching abilities.
Currently, Lynne is preparing to teach the second half of Romans. Her focus is on disciplined study, simplified preparation, and mentoring the next generation of women teachers in her community.
