Having gone through the lesson I can correlate or link the scriptures in a balanced way for myself and sharing with others especially as a teacher and a pastor of a church. It is very helpful and I’m really thankful.
The introduction to biblical has really open my mind, and now am looking forward to study a lot to be rooted in the word of God.
I am excited with joy at the way the teachings are outlined.
They are broken into segments that allow a student to learn the whole Bible in a simplified way.

An extremely and exciting course with eye opening insights into the ways and essentials of Church Plantings in different settings, cultures and places
Teaching about Church planting
It was great I’m glad to be a part of this wonderful teaching
This course has been very insightful especially with good governance and the local church. I think here in Africa, Zambia in particular this is a thorny issue because a good number of church planters seem to want to enforce their authority on the members. We hear of pastors who threaten to curse the members if they question decisions being made by the pastor. Finances in the local church is really a big challenge. We have so much discontent over the administration of finances in the local church. I have learnt a lot and hope to see how I can implement some of the suggested strategies. This program has also encouraged me on the numerical increments in the church. In Zambia this is a really big issue among pastor’s. It is equated to the calling or anointing on your life. Meaning churches with small congregation’s are led by pastors with small anointing in their lives. This is quite an issue which forces most church planters to concentrate on the middle and upper class of society. But I have been taught that it’s not about the church size but about growing people to maturity. I am encouraged by the lesson on leaders that establish strong churches. I have enjoyed the material provided. The importance of vision and the building of the church dream team struck a note in my spirit. I took real interest in the case studies. I would love to find a way of having a chat with the different presenters. They spoke so much into our current situation. I loved the different strategies each presenter employed in establishing their churches. So our work is in the slums of our district. Education levels are very low while substance abuse and sexual immorality is at an alarming high level. It is in this community that your tutorials are helping me to touch lives. It’s not easy, but God is on our side. I remain very grateful for this free program you have provided to me.
In this course, you’ll be equipped with the knowledge and frameworks in how to effectively take the gospel around the world and communicate it to cultures that are different to your own.

This is a good lecture for missionary and Church planters, i learnt a lot in these studies concerning mission experience and Church planting. What trigger me most is what not to have in mind during the trip, is especially Messiah mode.
This session is an eye opener for Christian that there are still million and million of people who are still unware of gospel and it is our duty to reach to un reach. Reading bible is good and it is more blessing if read the bible in front of the people who have not heart the bible.
Knowing cross culture values will help us to spread the word of God
I personally have learned a lot about Crossing culture and how to prepare for the great commission that God has called us to do… I will continue to avail myself for God to speak..
Praise the the name of the Lord Jesus.
I have lent so much on missionary works,how a long-term missionary work is and how effective it is.and how to do short term missionary work.understanding culture of the people you’re going to for mission is very important and their language before sharing the gospel to them.
It’s wonderful studying here I have learn alot about cross culture and many more
The pastoral ministry training course provided by Axx is really helping to fast-track my learning and growth. For one thing, it has helped me to see how God’s plan for the salvation of mankind spans the entire Bible.
I have also come to understand how contextualizing the gospel message makes for effective cross-cultural ministry and have been equipped with the tools I need to achieve this contextualization. Now, I no longer see things done from a different perspective from mine to be wrong just because they differ from my own perspective and cultural views. Where these do not clash with scripture, I now see them as “not wrong, just different.”
