PT 311 Course at a Glance

Course Description

This course is designed to help you think intentionally and biblically about leadership in the local church. Together we will explore the foundations, convictions, and core competencies that will begin to equip you to be a faithful and, under God, a fruitful pastor or ministry-leader. We’ll see how ignorance and neglect of leadership can foster ill health in ministry and create unnecessary confusion and conflict that can hinder the fruitfulness and impinge on the faithfulness of many ministries. The course will also demonstrate how a healthy cognizance and cultivation of leadership promotes faithfulness, fruitfulness, and a healthy ministry, and relies on biblical principles and wisdom when leadership issues arise. Throughout the course, we’ll seek to define and apply a foundational understanding of leadership in church ministry as it relates to the role of the Spirit and a biblical expression of vision, strategy, and execution according to the will of God to inspire, direct, and align his people toward his purposes.
