Russell L. Kelfer

Russell Lee Kelfer was used of God in ways which illustrate the Scriptural principle which is the theme of his homegoing celebration: "For ye see your calling, brethren, how that not many wise men after the flesh, not many noble, are called: But God hath chosen the weak things of the world to confound the things which are mighty" (I Corinthians 1:23). God called Russell to a variety of Kingdom tasks for which he had no worldly credentials, proving to all of us that "My grace is sufficient for thee:

My Time Has Not Yet Come

Discipleship Tape Ministries ·

2025/07/24

Jesus got more done in three years than anyone else would have in three thousand years, yet He was never rushed. Never panicked. Never frantic. Never distraught. He just took His time, and when the pressure began to build, instead of trying to do more, He spent more time in the Father’s presence, so He could be sure that He did what He did in the Father’s strength. When the time was right, He went. Not a minute before; not a minute late. God’s timing is always perfect.Read lesson: 997A

It Is… I AM

Discipleship Tape Ministries ·

2025/07/24

Jesus had sent the disciples away, because He needed to be alone. What a startling commentary on us in our lives of busyness! Examine why Jesus felt the need to be alone. However, the disciples had taken charge again and had gotten in their boats. A storm arose and Jesus saw that they were afraid. We watch, in this lesson, as Jesus walks on top of the circumstances rather that being tossed about by the circumstances. He comfortingly says, “It is I AM. Do not fear.” Why did the disciples panic?

What Are These Among So Many?

Discipleship Tape Ministries ·

2025/07/23

Five little loaves and a pair of fish. What were these among so many? Jesus intended to retreat with His disciples to a quiet place, and He did, but a great number of people appeared. What would Jesus do? He welcomed them, and taught them. He talked to them about the Kingdom of God, and He healed those who had need of healing. Jesus also saw that the people were hungry. He was quite aware of the numbers and what He would have to work with, but the less He has to work with, the more He can do. Jesus

God’s Plan for Survival

Discipleship Tape Ministries ·

2025/07/22

What is God’s plan for survival in a conflict that will not end until the enemy has been trodden underfoot? In Matthew 10, Jesus gives us some guidelines for surviving the attack of the enemy. We are to identify ourselves with the Lord and recognize the devices of the enemy. We are to stop holding back anything that keeps us from being a good soldier. We will take a good look at things that can hold us back and cause us to compromise our course. We are also to remember that the outcome is not up to

More Than Many Sparrows

Discipleship Tape Ministries ·

2025/07/21

It is time for the disciples to embark on their first real venture of evangelism. Jesus taught them a few things concerning what they would face and what they should do. The Lord warned them about the kind of reception the world would give them, but He also gave them words of encouragement concerning the power of the words they would speak. He also spoke of how much the Father loved them, and with those words, the twelve went out with boldness – will we?Read lesson: 994B

From Death to Life

Discipleship Tape Ministries ·

2025/07/20

Where man’s relationship with God is concerned, true strength comes from known dependence, not from independence. Jesus said clearly, “I am the Way, I am the Truth, I am the Life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by Me.” We have a choice to come to God only through accepting Jesus Christ as our Saviour. Our lives become dependent on His. The minute we invite Him in us as our Saviour, we pass from death to life. Our old self dies, and we are eternally connected to Jesus. He is waiting for us to ask

While He Was Speaking; As He Went

Discipleship Tape Ministries ·

2025/07/19

Jesus took one day at a time. One interruption at a time. One crisis at a time. If while He was yet speaking, another crisis arose, He quietly dealt with what seemed to be most immediate, and left the long-range solutions in the hands of the Father. That is the key to the Christ-filled, joy-filled Christian life – letting God be Himself. If we do that, we won’t become frantic, even if while we are speaking, or as we are going, another seemingly impossible crisis arises.Read lesson: 993B

Who Needs a Doctor?

Discipleship Tape Ministries ·

2025/07/17

We have been called to serve one another. To do that, we’ve got to go where the people are. We have to accept, like Jesus, the tax collector’s invitation to have supper with the city’s ten most hated list. We have to go, bathed in the love of Christ, not to enjoy their sin or be attracted by their greed, but neither to condemn them by ignoring them or condescending to them. They need Jesus. We have Jesus. They are sick. We know the Doctor.Read lesson: 993A

Peace, Be Still

Discipleship Tape Ministries ·

2025/07/17

Is it possible to have peace in the midst of life’s storms? As the disciples faced the storm, they became afraid. They thought that Jesus did not care about them. Do we feel that way also in the midst of trying circumstances? Jesus, as always, was trying to teach the disciples through the storm to rest in Him. He wants us to take a deep breath and say to our anxious souls: “Peace, be still”. He may speak to the winds, and they may cease. He may speak to the waves, and in an instant they may become

Spiritual Soil Conservation

Discipleship Tape Ministries ·

2025/07/15

Jesus said the key to the harvest is in the seed. We must be hearing The Word constantly. The soil must be ready for the seed. It must fall into an honest and good heart. We will take a look at what each of those words mean. We are then to turn the Word into understanding by personalizing the Scripture and applying it to our lives. Jesus also tells us we must be patient as the seed grows. Gradually a Christ-likeness will settle into our spirit and a godliness will beam from our faces when we are in

The Miracle of Multiplication

Discipleship Tape Ministries ·

2025/07/15

The miracle of miracles is the message of multiplication. It is God taking soil from the likes of our hearts and using it. He takes the Seed of His Word and pours it into our lives, producing fruit adequate to feed the world spiritually. That’s the miracle. What are the methods God uses for this multiplication? There are a variety of ways, but this lesson will zero in on four of them. We need to tend the soil of our lives as the parable has warned us to do and let God be Himself in us. We will see

Eleven Fifty-Nine and Holding

Discipleship Tape Ministries ·

2025/07/14

If we were to assume this was the year of the Lord’s return, how would it affect our lives? We are destined to choose at the start of each year whether or not that year will see our perspective broaden, and our walk with God deepen, or not. Do we get as excited about heaven as we do about a new house? Does the thought of spending eternity with Jesus captivate our hearts morning, noon, and night? It is time to take inventory of where our hearts are focused every new year.Read lesson: 991A

Don’t Choke the Word

Discipleship Tape Ministries ·

2025/07/12

The cares of this world, the deceitfulness of riches, and the lusts of other things entering in – these things choke the Word. And when they do, no matter how much we study, no matter how much we hear, no matter how faithful we seem to be to the outward evidences of religiosity – little by little, the cancerous disease of compromise eats away at the fiber of our beings, and the Word becomes unprofitable. We never stopped planting the Word in our life, but we didn’t tend the garden. We didn’t root

Roots

Discipleship Tape Ministries ·

2025/07/11

This is a lesson about roots. It is a lesson on what makes a tree grow strong enough to weather life’s storms, and correspondingly what makes a man or woman grow strong enough to weather life’s storms as well. In both cases, it’s the same – roots. That is why we need to lay aside every other thing we consider important in this life, and place the process of developing roots as the top priority in our lives.Read lesson: 990A

Then Came the Seed Snatcher

Discipleship Tape Ministries ·

2025/07/11

The Scriptures give us a very balanced picture of Satan. He is described in great detail, but always to give us an understanding of his tactics, not a fear of his actions. We are admonished to be aware of his authority, but to be even more aware of the far greater authority of the indwelling Christ. Nearly every time we see the power of Satan mentioned in the New Testament, it is mentioned to draw attention to the power of God. Our purpose in this lesson is to draw attention to the remarks Jesus

The Sower Sows the Word

Discipleship Tape Ministries ·

2025/07/10

The godly sower knows the seed. He knows it is precious. He knows it is pure. He knows it is powerful. He knows it is permanent. The godly sower sows the seed without wavering, without compromising, without complaining without doubting and without glorying. But above all, He sows the seed. He knows that it was not entrusted to him for him to start a seed museum, but to sow the seed. Perhaps it is time that some of us stopped clutching the seed, or storing the seed, and simply began to sow the

The Seed Is the Word

Discipleship Tape Ministries ·

2025/07/09

This lesson centers around an important parable that Jesus taught concerning the seed-bearing fruit in certain types of soils. Many refer to this parable as the parable of the soils. It should rather be considered the parable of the seed. The seed is the Word of God. Only one thing will bring others to Christ, and that is the Word of God. That is why we must stay in the Scriptures day and night if we are to stay in God’s will. Do we dare give the Word anything less than it’s rightful place in our

Arise!

Discipleship Tape Ministries ·

2025/07/08

God can deliver us from life’s unpleasantries, and He will, if that is all we have the faith to believe He can do. But, quarantined Christians don’t win many battles. Quarantined Christians don’t claim many victories. That is why mature Christians will constantly be passing through the fires of life. The men and women in the Word, who were men and women after God’s own heart, spent their lives doing battle with enemies and winning.Read lesson: 988A

I Am Not Worthy

Discipleship Tape Ministries ·

2025/07/07

How aware are we of the greatness of God? The centurion with the sick child understood. His faith touched the heart of God as he cried out, “Lord, I am not worthy to have you even come under my roof.” Is it only as we adopt the mindset of this centurion that we will ever truly adopt the Mind of Christ? Is it because, when we look in the mirror, we do not like ourselves? No, it is because when we look at Jesus, we do not so much as think of ourselves. Our minds are totally absorbed with the honor of

God’s Boomerang Laws

Discipleship Tape Ministries ·

2025/07/05

The Word of God has a lot to say about cause and effect. At the outset of Matthew 7 and the corresponding passage in Luke 6, we find our Lord explaining some spiritual laws that appear to have even more direct cause-and-effect results; results that would always come back to the Christian in exact measure and in exactly the same area of the Christian’s life. Jesus took four of the most crucial areas of Christian behavior and tied a boomerang to them, so they would return in the exact measure and to
