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.

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.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From Cognitive Teaching to Connected Learning Given the landscape of global Christianity and the variety of approaches to theological and missiological training today, how do we equip the global church for the mission of God? Should mission organizations or sending churches conduct their own in-house training? What is the role of Bible colleges and seminaries in equipping for mission today? What about informal approaches to theological and ministry training? Equipping for Global Mission offers insights from seasoned scholars and practitioners. Beginning with theological convictions and practical reflections, our authors make a case for what equipping for mission could look like in the present global church. Case studies from India, China, North America, and Britain further challenge the reader to reflect on this critical issue. The full scope of educating for mission is far too broad of a task for any single organization. This is why the contributors serve the church so well—by enlarging a much-needed conversation. This book is a clarion call to all who care about missions and the global church. Join world leaders in reshaping missions education today by using the practical and strategic wisdom in these pages.

This book was released on 2023-02-18 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Has God called you to full-time missions, but you lack the finances to move forward? The mission field is understaffed. Unreached people groups, which make up over 40% of the world population, have one foreign missionary for every 216,000 souls. Many who are called never reach the field because of financial lack or insufficient relational support. But it doesn't have to be like this; God has a better way. God has funded his workers for over 3,500 years through the partnership of his family. The Great Commission does not belong to the missionary alone; it belongs to the Body of Christ. In both the Old and New Testaments we see a substantial culture of partnership- the family of God rallying around the workers and making them available to do the work of God. A Modern Application of the Ancient Model In this training manual, you will discover God's pattern for funding His mission and His workers. You will be given clarity, confidence in the scriptures, a real action plan, and practical steps to take toward being fully funded. You will receive help in clarifying your ministry assignment, sharing your vision, and inviting the Body of Christ to be part of it. God sends missionaries into the harvest with the prayer, camaraderie, and financial support of a team. You can raise a partnership team and move forward with strength and confidence to complete the assignment that God has given you. God Has a Support Team for Every Called Missionary

Download or read book Engaging Millennials in Missions written by Annell James and published by Christian Faith Publishing, Inc.. This book was released on 2024-08-13 with total page 88 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The millennial members of the church have shown a lack of interest in participating in the local church's mission ministry. This lack of interest has caused the missions department and the church concern because fulfilling the mission of God is the mission of the church. The mission statement of the church is the focus of the ministry programs. Suppose the mission department creates a missions training program designed to focus on a technological learning style in which millennials thrive. Could it attract, involve, and engage millennials in future mission trips while educating them? It is this question that the research seeks to answer. Arriving at the answer is achieved by posing questions to millennials at the church via interviews and a focus group and searching books for authorial insight into their characteristics. This research will determine if conflicts within the church influenced the millennial's decision to participate. The findings from this research will be instrumental in informing and assisting churches in identifying potential problems and solutions relative to a generational group within the church.

This book was released on 2023-12-21 with total page 53 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Academic Paper from the year 2022 in the subject Theology - Practical Theology, , course: Post graduate Diploma in Theology and Missions, language: English, abstract: The research paper focuses on the research training process for cross-cultural missionaries, emphasizing the optimal timing and implications for long-term effectiveness in cross-cultural missionary ministry. The central aim is to prompt readers to critically examine and comprehend the significance of integrating a research training program into missionary training, exploring the implications for fostering long-term success in cross-cultural ministry. The paper aims to pinpoint the most effective timing within a missionary training program to introduce research training, ensuring its maximum impact on cross-cultural missionaries. Delving into the implications of incorporating research training, the research explores how this process influences the long-term effectiveness of cross-cultural missionary ministry. Engaging with individuals from diverse cultures demands heightened sensitivity and concerted efforts to navigate potential misunderstandings arising from differences in language, cultural norms, and religion. The complexity of cross-cultural interactions necessitates specialized training to equip missionaries with the necessary skills for effective engagement. Training institutions bear a significant responsibility in cultivating the capacity of missionaries to respond appropriately to the diversity present in the societies they serve. A fundamental aspect of this responsibility is to develop strategies that contribute to successful intercultural interactions globally. The research paper underscores the importance of educators in offering solutions to challenges linked to unsuccessful intercultural engagements and emphasizes the urgency of creating effective intercultural and research training programs.
