WORKSHOP DESCRIPTION

• Experienced church planters and trainerscan orient your pastors and missionaries to mentoring and coachingpractices that help apprentice leaders to multiply congregations andcell groups.
• Throughbible discovery, skits, simulations and discussions, your workers willlearn and practice the skills that help congregations and cells toreproduce.
• Wherechurches, missions and development programmes have adopted biblicalconvictions and practices, new congregations and cells will normally beplanted with new believers.
• Trainingworkshops also introduce several training materials that can be freelycopied and easily translate and adapted into local languages.

• Our trainers speak English, French, Indonesian and Spanish. Workshops typically last between two and four days.

Basic convictions

1. Co-workers agree on their vision to multiply congregations or cells, and they lay plans to do so.
2. Shepherds make disciples by training them to obey Jesus’ commands before all else, the way Jesus said to do so.
3. Co-ordinatorshelp shepherds and congregations to integrate evangelism and socialprojects, providing training and training materials.
4. Shepherds train newer shepherds by mentoring them, the way Jesus did.
5. Congregations reproduce themselves by sending their God-given apostles, as the Antioch congregation did.
6. Trainerslisten to their apprentices report what their congregation is doing,and then help them to plan their field work and assign studiesaccordingly.
7. Apprentices apply their studies at once, by shepherding their flocks, and by training newer shepherds.
