Training people with a vision to engage in mission and start churches in the emerging culture.
The rapid pace of change in our culture has raised a number of questions for a church failing to grow or even sustain itself. In these surroundings many have heard the call to become missionaries at home. Fresh expressions of church are emerging all over the place with different styles and theologies echoing and adapting to the assorted nature of our culture. There are new opportunities as well as profound challenges, renewed excitement and vision, alongside the reality check of how hard it actually is to plant a church from scratch.
ReSource brings together a number of people, churches and organisations (St Toms being one) who have met on this journey in church planting. We combine a breadth of experience and understanding with the vision to train those engaging with this journey.
Together we will examine the theology and practice from both a mission and pastoral perspective – taking a broad look at the church and the emerging culture. We will go right back to the essentials and ask…if you are planting a church from scratch, what are the issues?
ReSource runs an accredited year-long training course based around 5 residential weekends at different churches around the country. .JPG)
Our aim is that by the end of the year you will:
· be equipped to create church in emerging culture
· develop mission strategies for your specific context
· explore and apply skills in leadership and discipleship
· develop your capacity for spiritual and personal growth
