Certification of Church Planting Course

I came to know the deep things of the calling through this course. I encourage any one having a calling to undergo this course and his/her calling will be improved.

Thanks to Brendan and all the team members of the College. This course so far is outstanding, marvellous and tremendously helpful. I’ve learnt so much from it. The ministry zones, the path, etc. I am already teaching from my lessons there.

Well, greetings on the Name of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. I’m writing from Nairobi Kenya. I’m a pastor in Mathare slums, Nairobi city.This to me has been very transformative. I have been pastoring a church for the last 3years and have never known the things I now know about the call. God bless you so much. I have been taking notes and sharing with my leaders in the church. I surely need more of this! Once I finish the courses I will definitely be the number one crusader for my pastor friends to undergo this training. Thanks

These are good tools for analyze and apply the Bible. It helped me to connect the original audience and the intended audience to understand the text by coming up of questions and clues. I thank the entire team and the lecturer for the well presented lectures. May the almighty God richly bless you

I am very happy to have been given an opportunity to be part of the wonderful training in the word of God. It’s so enjoyable to me to learn the word of God, this is my first experience to be exposed to the word of God in formal teaching like this one. I am learning a lot about analysing and applying the word of God, my eyes are being opened as now I start to find some correct meaning of some scriptures and their applications; taking into consideration the historical context of the message or text. Thank you so much Axx.
God bless you.

Hi good day everyone and our Axx family.
I’m being blessed with the insight and the wisdom, acknowledged the integrity of the Bible school as a whole.
Working through this course is Giving me a new perspective and fresh revelation.

As a minister or servant of God called in a specific time nation and place, one has to realise that that s/he is just here for a specific time. Our role model must always be Jesus Christ who accomplished a lot in
just three years. A servant of God has to be mindful of the time being wise in their walk with God. In Ephesians 5:15-16 we read that we’ve to walk WISELY and we’ve to redeem the time putting it to GOOD USE for the days are evil. I see in this portion of scripture the need for us to balance our way of life if we are to be effective in our ministries. Walking wisely includes;
– understing our calling purpose and vision
– proper planning and timing
– setting up our goals to achieve our vision
– taking good care of ourselves. Remember good health is so very important to the servant of God the apostle John wrote and I quote;
….Beloved, I pray that all may go well with you and that you may be in good health, as it goes well with your soul. 3 John 2.
A successful minister who knows what s/he’s here for will always be mindful of time management, h/she understands what she’s carrying and time to deliver it. H/she’ll be organized, taking good care of his/her health and being disciplined in all areas of their life. A minister has to know and understand that h/his not going to last forever here on earth so planning and setting up goals is so important. A disciplined minister can achieve more in a short period with proper planning and timing, there’s time for everything Ecclesiastes 3:1, we can’t do all things at the same time,
– we have to set priorities
– we have to be organised and focused
– we have to be prayerful always seeking God’s face, because our plans must be in line and total agreement with His plan Isaiah 55:8-9. Proverbs 3:5-7
Our eyes must be always on the author and finisher of our faith Hebrews 12:2.
AMEN
Thank you

It was really insightful but not deep enough as i had expected,i am guessing this is the spiritual standpoint of personal management…i am a life skill faciliator this is why i speak this way but i loved every bit of the classes..thank you.

The course has taught me how to maintain the balance in spiritual and physical. It has been designed in a way that it make people understand themselves well in the way they treat themselves in Physical and Spiritual

The biblical narrative, while a summary of the journey through the bible lays the foundation for the rest of the course. This course is insightful and impacting.

This course was a good reminder of how to read each book of the bible in the context each writer intended. It helps to look at the surroundings in which each book was written, its audience and how it applies to us today. I think it helps to connect the OT writings to the New Testament. I think the grouping of the books into the different genres helps to see that God’s Word is a beautifully crafted, intentional work for us to enjoy studying and for us to also be intentional in the way we live as we apply His Word. The greatest teacher is the Holy Spirit but the lecturers have done a great job in helping the student engage

This course is intensively written and taught about the major books and the prophets. I have learned how the books came to being and how prophets were chosen and their contribution too.

This course have really opened my mind and gave me more insight in the things of God

This is an eye opening module and simplifies the theological terms and school of thoughts leaving one having a correct and balanced perspective about God as One in 3 and 3 in 1 [Trinity]

Full Pack course, helpful, useful and gave a clear understanding about authentic theology.

Developing your church and church planting is most important knowledge to have so people especially Christians can make the church grow and enlarged by number of people and number buildings.

this course has opened my eyes to see how to grow the church by church planting.

RICH COURSE

I learned through this course that, preaching the gospel with out understanding the local cultures of the people intended to be evangelize can be a stumbling block to the gospel. I learned even God himself came through the culture of the people in oredr to be understood

Taking the gospel of the Lord Jesus Christ to all nations can’t be wholly fulfilled or achieved without taking into consideration the phrase “ALL NATIONS”. Every believer in the Lord has to know accept and believe that salvation is for all (John 3:16). The “ALL NATIONS” consist of different ethinic groupings in the entire world who’ve different culture and all differ in the way they talk sing greet marry relate dress etc. So those who are commissioned to preach the gospel and make disciples of all nations have to be trained and equipped adquately and effectively in order for them to reach the unreached with the gospel.
a) The reason for taking the gospel to all nations.
It’s the Lord’s command because
– All have sinned and are in danger of hell fire and eternal separation from their creator therefore they need a savior Jesus Christ. ( Rom. 3:23 – 24)
– The number of the unreached is so big so more disciples are needed to harvest more souls for the Lord. ( Mat. 28:18 – 20)
b) The call and commission is for every believer in the Lord regardless of their gender their background and social standing in society. ( Mark 16:15 – 18)
c) They’ve to be trained and equipped in cross culture missions because
– They’re going to minister the gospel to the people of different culture values and traditions.
They need to know the place and people they’re going to very well. They need to take time to understand their culture especially their language being the most import in order for them to communicate the gospel. They must be so patient because it would take time for them to be able to understand the people of the land. They’ve to be more of listening paying attention to every activity and conversation in order for them to learn more. They’ve to know that they’re not taking God to that place He’s already there all they need to do is to point people of that land to their savior. They’ve to know that it’s the gospel they’ve to preach to the people of the land not the way they live in the countries of their origin. They’ve to be prayerful seeking God studying His word all the time depending on Him alone. They must be involved in the good works of the community they must be very helpful.
They must be of good character and they must lead life worth of their calling. They must respect authority and laws of the land. They must adapt to good customs food and culture of the land in order for them to get closer to the people for easy preaching of the gospel they must create friendships.
With all these put into consideration and action the work of the missionary would be easier and less stressful.
Thank you

Thr Course content for this course is very rich, to say the least. I have gained a better understanding of how reach out to people of cultures different from mine I.e contextualizing the gospel. Thank you AXX for this course. Thanks also Pastor Kay Dohle for an excellent delivery. I pray that the Lord give you all more grace to continue and enlarge further the scope of your ministry.

I’m convinced that those studies would go beyond borders,I mean it would be good to establish church leaders conferences to pack the leaders with these Godly teaching.

I was taught in this course how to design and deliver a sermon. I’m now a master designer of the sermons and I can deliver a sermon effectively in the way that will touch the lives of the people.

The Sermon Design and Delivery has improved my style of preaching and has attracted many pastors and the believers as well. I also translated the the same teaching to my Pastors so as to improve themselves in the method of delivering a message effectively.Therefore, it is worthy to mentioned that I’m more impacted than before and have changed levels in terms of preaching and designing the sermons
