I have been enlightened on models of reflection on ministry and theology.
The normative approach where we think about what is happy,why it is happening and what should be happening and so what we need to do to intervene.
I have been taught about true success in ministry which is not necessarily getting fame, money, influence and mega Churches with big numbers but servant leadership,and creating disciples for Christ.
Serving the right purpose as a key to ministry fulfilment.
These lectures has really helped me to reflect on my ministry life and see if I was progressing or not. Theological reflection has really been challenging and awakening.
Buy started this level and this course I have gained more information, I have transformed, I am happy to be part of this course level, God bless you Axx Bible College.
I defiantly gave this teaching five stars, not only because I have enjoyed it but the structuring is fantastic. The reflective aspect of ministry is something that builds up the ministry, it serve as a compass. The training focused on the main values of reflection, and draw from different experiences. Fantastic I really love it and recommend it, best way to further your knowledge in God’s word. Well done. 👏👏
Jon’s leading and the content is both transforming and enlightening. I have been challenged to look at my understanding of theology in ministering to self and others. The practice of this is ongoing. Thank you. Praise God.
Very interesting Theological Reflections by Kinast and Anderson. They both have very different Theological ideas and views.
This is an advanced course on the distinctive Christian doctrine of the Trinity. International expert Dr Kevin Giles provides a framework to engage with and understand the issues, ancient and contemporary, surrounding traditional Trinitarian theology.
Dr Kevin Giles, an Australian, has served as an Anglican parish minister for over forty years. He has been publishing on the substantial equality of the sexes since 1975. He holds a doctorate in New Testament studies and has published books on the church, church health, ministry in the apostolic age, the book of Acts, gender equality, and the Trinity, and numerous scholarly and popular articles.
It has been a great journey getting to learn about the holy trinity.
Getting to learn how many scholars and theologians have developed the concept of the trinity over the years till date is very challenging and informative to me.
I have learnt that God the father,the son and the holy spirit are one being expressed in three ways in unity and that one cannot be separated from the other.
I have been challenged as well as been equipped to handle this doctrine of Trinity with a wide range of world views. And seen their differences and their similarities.
This course has added me more information about trinity which for many years ago in ministry I was not able to find, thanks Axx Bible College.
I found the work of Kevin to be solid in the sense that we hold the same view, I believe that some have invested too much of their time keeping women down within Ministry. The Trinity must not be use as an excuse for our action, which sadly is exactly what is happening within the church. This module was well structure and delivered. So much has been learned leaving me hungry for more insight.
This course provides an advanced framework for understanding the role of women in ministry leadership. You’ll learn about the key theological concepts that underpin the issue, allowing you to view women in leadership from a biblical perspective.

Beautiful learning experience.
I have learnt the difficult contemporary issues around women and ministry in history and even today and the appropriate biblical approach to them.
I have learnt that women are not as we see them.
They are also made in Gods image and likeness and they are also very important in ministry and the kingdom of God.
They ought to be appreciated.
I have learned a lot from these lectures and resources you have suggested and provided.
Very challenging course, but good. This knowledge has added me more information about leading the Church of Chrst, and how I can work with women, understand them, correcting and teaching them in my ministry. Wonderful, God bless you.
I am a senior pastor of a pentecostal church l,I pastored with my husband before he passed away then
I took on the senior pastors role but struggle as I was bought up Baptist and at that time women did not take any leadership role.
This course has broken many wrong mind set and I now have complete confidence in my calling and this has changed the way I lead our church . Thank you so much .Big God bless you

I found this topic to be very refreshing, the argument of women in ministry hasn’t started today and surely won’t stop today as well. However, we that understands the important of such issues will go on talking about it when ever the opportunity is presented. It was a very enjoyable topic and well structure.
