Fresh Expressions to train thousands in mission shaped ministry
PDF The highly successful Fresh Expressions mission shaped ministry course starts in nine locations from January 2010.
The course is designed to help Christians reach those not involved in traditional churches.
The new season includes the first courses to be organised in Scotland, in Glasgow and Inverness.
The 24-unit course is usually presented over three Saturdays, a residential weekend, and six or seven weekday evenings.
For those developing fresh expressions of church, mentoring is offered in between meetings. Although Individuals are welcome to sign up for the course, organisers say the learning is enhanced when people come as part of small groups.
Among other topics, the course looks at the mission of God, vision and values, Gospel and culture, evangelism and discipleship, and how to keep going when things get tough.
