- Credits
- 5 credits
Put your faith into practice. With a ministry mentor beside you, share the gospel with care, keep a habit of Bible reading and prayer, and lead a small group through the Catechism.
This course is practice, not study. For about 24 weeks you do the first work of ministry in three phases: salvation, discipleship and service. You meet your mentor about every three weeks and keep a journal of what you do. With your mentor you choose a track: as a Learner you do each exercise yourself; as a Coach you also build the programme and train others to lead.
What you will do
- Tell your testimony and explain the way of salvation
- Talk and pray with seekers with compassion, patience and respect, without pressure
- Keep a steady rhythm of Bible reading and prayer
- Pray for people by name
- Lead a small group through the Catechism
- Take part in a local church, under supervision
- Keep a journal and talk through your ministry with your mentor
