Download or read book Training Missionaries written by Evelyn Hibbert and published by William Carey Publishing. This book was released on 2016-09-08 with total page 271 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Missionaries must know God, be able to relate well to other people, understand and engage with another culture, and be able to use the Bible in a way that informs all aspects of their lives and ministries. Missionary training must address each of these areas if it is to help Christians to be effective in taking the gospel to the ends of the earth. Effective training has been shown to prevent people from prematurely leaving the field. It also reduces the danger of cross-cultural workers uncritically exporting culturally bound forms of Christianity. This book details four key areas that every missionary training program, whatever its context, must focus on developing. It shows how these can be holistically addressed in a learning community where trainers and trainees engage in cross-cultural ministry together.
Download or read book Missionary Candidate Training written by Paul Sungro Lee and published by Evangelical Alliance for Preacher Training/Commission. This book was released on 2008-11-15 with total page 103 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Today, the world mission has unprecedentedly become a task of every national churches and believers on earth. Missionaries are being sent out from every nations to every nations! Strategists have previously noticed that Africa, along with East Asia, would emerge as the key fulcrum for world missions in the 21st Century. 2010 Lausanne Congress held in South Africa proved that to be true. Along this path, Evangelical Alliance for Preacher Training/Commission (EAPTC) opened their missions training schools in Kenya and South Korea, using this book as their training text. It was through the efforts of those missionary trainees that their work expanded into over 200 new church plants in 11 countries today. This book was put together mainly for Two-Thirds World missionary candidates who often find themselves limited with sound missions training opportunities around, while the lessons in this manual apply to all who are mission-interested. Going as a missionary or sending a missionary without proper training is quite reckless. The principles of cross-cultural mission presented in 11 chapters of this book are field-tested nuggets that can certainly equip anyone aspiring for missionary work. The training has been scientifically validated effective through research and used in Africa, Asia, Americas and Oceania. This manual is also available in French, Spanish, Portuguese and Amharic.

Download or read book Training Missionaries to Grow in Their Ministry of Making Disciples written by James Eric Guthrie and published by . This book was released on 2021 with total page 500 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This dissertation describes a contextualized instructional design process based on key missionary-training practices that helps Beautiful Feet missionaries grow in their ministry of making disciples. The issue prompting the study was a misalignment between the current missionary-training process of Beautiful Feet and its vision and mission statements. Part I offers a precedent literature review. First, is the argument that the ministry of making disciples is a critical element of faithfulness in missionaries. Second, from an exploration of the modern Protestant missionary movement, Enoch Wan and Mark Hedinger’s paradigm of relational realism is presented as a framework for missionary-training practices. Third, from an examination of two key instructional design models, adult learning, and dialogue education, the argument is made for Jane Vella, Paula Berardinelli, and Jim Burrow’s accountability process of learning, transfer, and impact as a framework for evaluating Beautiful Feet’s missionary training. Vella’s twelve principles for effective adult learning are also presented as a framework for a missionary-training process design, and her eight design steps are presented as a framework for designing a specific training module. In part II is a presentation of what was learned through carefully designed case studies about how the design and emphasis of missionary training impacts the ministry of making disciples. From semi-structured interviews, content analysis, and participant observation, the collected data suggests a primary finding that Beautiful Feet’s existing missionary-training process is heavily front-loaded, resulting in limited learning, transfer, and impact. Part III presents a change plan for a training process designed to help Beautiful Feet missionaries grow in their ministry of making disciples. First, is an analysis of the leadership context of Beautiful Feet that informs the adoption of the steward-leadership model. Next, is a description of a three-phase change plan that outlines a newly designed missionary-training process for Beautiful Feet. Finally, the findings are discussed from a post-evaluation of phase one. Concluding thoughts offer ways this study could be useful for others, listing several suggestions for further research and briefly highlighting anticipated outcomes.

Download or read book Appropriate Christianity written by Charles H. Kraft and published by William Carey Library. This book was released on 2005 with total page 662 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Appropriate Christianity consists of 28 chapters by 18 authors approaching contextualization in three dimensions: truth, allegiance and spiritual power. Over the years, there have been quite a number of helpful discussions of the contextualization of theological truth. Though we have been helped greatly by them, it is high time we began to deal also with allegiance and spiritual power, two additional dimensions that Jesus considered of great importance. Any adequate and appropriate treatment of the contextualization of biblical Christianity needs to deal with all three of these "crucial dimensions." For allegiance to Christ is the basis for all we do that makes us Christian, and Jesus was very much into spiritual power. If we are to be truly biblical, we must deal also with these areas. This book is not a festschrift even though it is dedicated to Dr. Dean S. Gilliland, who joined the faculty of Fuller's School of Intercultural Studies in 1977 and has since been developing an emphasis on teaching and research concerning contextualized theology. This is a new textbook aimed at expanding our understanding of contextualization and better enabling us to effectively and appropriately communicate biblical Christianity.
