Session 7: Jim Osman - Why Do We Care?

By Jim Osman, Pastor| Nov 19, 2022 | Cessationist Conference
Description: Is the cessation/continuation theology merely an academic exercise? What are the real-world implications of the issues we have discussed? How does continuationist theology affect my view of Scripture? Continuationism undermines the authority of Scripture, the centrality of Scripture, and the sufficiency of Scripture in the life of a believer.
About Speaker: Jim Osman Pastor/Teacher, Kootenai Community Church
Jim Osman was born in May of 1972 and has lived in Sandpoint since he was 3 years old. He achieved his life’s ambition by graduating from Sandpoint High School in 1990. Jim came to know Christ through the ministry of Cocolalla Lake Bible Camp. Kootenai Community Church has always been his home church, attending Sunday school, Vacation Bible School, and Youth Group. After graduating from high school, he attended Millar College of the Bible in Pambrun, Saskatchewan. It was at Bible College that Jim met his wife-to-be, Diedre, who was also enrolled as a student. Jim graduated with a three-year diploma in April of 1993 and married Diedre in August of that same year. He returned to Millar to further his education in September of 1994 and graduated from the Fourth Year Internship Program with a Bachelor of Arts in Strategic Ministries in April of 1995. Jim and Diedre returned to Sandpoint where Jim began working in construction and as a Roofing Materials Application Specialist (roofer) until he was asked to take over as the preaching elder of Kootenai Com-munity Church in December of 1996. Now he counts it as his greatest privilege to be involved in ministering in the church that ministered to him for so many years. It has been a great adventure! Jim is the author of Truth or Territory: A Biblical Approach to Spiritual Warfare, Selling the Stairway to Heaven, The Prosperity of the Wicked: A Study of Psalm 73, and God Doesn’t Whisper. Jim and Diedre have four adult children.
