Dániel Maszárovics is a medical student and ministry organiser from Hungary who is eager to strengthen his leadership skills.
When did you trust Christ?
I was raised in a Christian family. Though, it wasn’t until I was fourteen years old, when I had a discussion with an older believer that I finally understood what it meant to commit my life to Christ. I made my choice, we prayed together, and I received God’s grace and love.
What have been the defining moments of your Christian walk?
When I was a teenager, I went to a boarding school and became interested in what it was like to be one of the cool kids. In the dormitory, I was worldly, while at church I presented a Christian life. During my first year of medical school, I saw the disobedience in my life, the lies, and hypocrisy. I joined a Bible study and served at summer youth camps; I learned a lot from these ministries. Now, God teaches me a lot through marriage, and I also receive a lot from the elders and preachers of my church.
What do you hope to gain from participating?
I know I have to learn more about leadership and need brothers and sisters who can understand me and answer my questions. I need to learn how to depend on God as a leader. ELF will help me in these endeavors.
What is your ministry?
At the moment, my current ministry is preaching at my local church. I also help organise conferences. I organise the Hungarian Brethren Churches’ Easter Conference, and I co-organise an annual Hungarian Christian Medical Forum.
What is your leadership role or what were your past leadership roles?
Back in my home church, I have been preaching for several years. As a student, I was a leader for IFES / InterVarsity at my university. My aim was to build a community that strengthened believers in their faith and shared the Gospel in our university. With another leader from IFES / Intervarsity, I started the Hungarian Christian Medical Forum. Further, I was asked to be one of the leaders of the Hungarian Youngstars Ministry where we translated and started training for older teens and young adults.
Why should someone invest in your ministry?
I am young, I am faithful, and I see a lot of need in ministries. I already have quite a lot of experience in leadership, but I still need to grow in many different areas.
