Our MoBiL training is focused on Mobilizing Biblical Leaders with a commitment to building churches and church leaders that understand and proclaim God’s Word with power and precision.

OBJECTIVE:

Since the Great Commission’s mandate to “make disciples in every nation” is best fulfilled through the ongoing work of local communities of Christ-followers, we strive to build healthy local churches in new fields of outreach. To ensure the health of these local churches, MissioSERVE works with global partners to train church leaders in how to study and preach God’s Word. If the preaching of the Word is to faithfully remain in the truth, then there must be some men who are trained to “handle the Word” correctly while proclaiming it with passion and integrity.

PROCESS:

Following the NT example, the most practical place for new pastors to be trained is under the mentorship of their own pastor, and in the context of their own local church. We encourage and equip church leaders to train the missionaries and church planters sent out from their churches, as well as develop new leaders within their own congregations.

TOOLS:

Many pastors struggle to pass on their knowledge and skill in the Word to others in an organized and structured manner. We train using proven, effective principles for study that are easy to transmit and reproduce while still being effective for finding the true message of a biblical passage[i].

METHOD:

Since good study habits are rehearsed rather than received, there is a limit to how much one can learn through typical, classroom lectures. MoBiL training incorporates multiple ways of learning. Perhaps the best comparison is to that of coaching a sports camp, in which a skill is introduced and then time is given for practice of the skill under the supervision of knowledgeable coaches.
