Leadership

   

Development

 
What's in it for me?

Maybe you've considered increasing your understanding of the Bible or becoming better equipped for ministry, but couldn't fit seminary into your hectic schedule. Or perhaps you are responsible for training leaders for a variety of ministry positions, but your constituents can't leave their ministry context for advanced training. Contextualized Leadership Development (CLD) provides quality, Bible-based ministry training in a geographically convenient and contextualized setting.

 

CLD is a training program designed to equip Christians for leadership in a variety of ministry contexts.

 

Diploma Programs

CLD courses are offered in English or other languages and cover a wide range of topics. Diplomas are offered in Christian MInistries, Church Planting, and Theology.

 

Our goal is to develop church leaders and planters with a broad vision for God's work. We strive to empower Kingdom growth by fulfilling our obligation to bring God's Word to everyone, everywhere.

 

CLD Offers

1. Practical training for all current and potential church leaders and planters.
2. Culturally relevant courses that address the needs of those already in ministry.
3. A flexible means of equipping church planters to start indigenous, healthy and reproducing churches.
4. Courses include Evangelism, Bible teaching methods, preaching, and more.
5. Upon completion of their CLD programs, students graduate and receive diplomas from GGBTS and are thereafter GGBTS alumni.
 
Shaping effective Christian leaders

for the churches of tomorrow.
