Only then will you avoid the spiritually damaging blows of heresy which scoffs at the truth about God’s all-sufficient saving work and ultimate justice. Join us and discover God’s pathway through confusion based on the guaranteed hope declared by a God who cannot lie. All men are invited to join us for this new study beginning on January 27 & 28 meeting Tuesdays at 4:00 pm and Wednesdays at 6:00 am in the Generations Building.
Spiritual Leadership Training (SLT)
Begins January 2026
SLT is designed to prepare, equip, and evaluate men, developing Christian leadership in the home, workplace, and church. The church will only rise to the spiritual maturity and level of its leaders; therefore, it is critical we train current and future godly leaders for this and the next generation of gospel growth. The structure of this course will provide a broad-based leadership training with an emphasis on equipping men to be effective shepherds and leaders of others.
SLT requires a one-year commitment and covers four distinct modules over four years. There is a yearly in-class time of 27.5 hours and out-of-class reading and project commitment of approximately 70 hours spread over 11 months, followed by a yearly graduation. This will enable men to come on-board at any time in January with any module.
Four Yearly Modules of Training:
Module One- The Character of a Leader: Recognize the Call – The focus will be on shaping the character of men. This is by far the most important aspect of godly leadership as seen in 1 Timothy 3 and Titus 1.
Module Two- The Responsibilities of a Leader: Own the Call - Module two is designed to help leaders think through the areas of their lives that they are accountable to before God, and how they should seek to fulfill those responsibilities. SLT will consider topics such as responsibility to self, marriage and family, prayer, worship, evangelism, and missions. We will look at the Christian leader’s responsibility in relation to church growth, discipleship, and shepherding believers, along with pastoral care, counseling, and how to help people experience change and growth as they are conformed into the likeness of Christ.
Module Three- The Knowledge of a Leader: Know the Call - We will work through a survey of both the Old and New Testaments with monthly focus on systematic doctrines. This module will lay a foundation of knowledge to build your leadership skills and assist in making you more effective for discipling others.
Module Four- The Skills of a Leader: Excel in the Call - We will look at developing the skill of resolving conflicts, exegetical processes, homiletics, and preaching.
We meet once per month on a Saturday morning for 2.5 hours from 6:00am-8:30am. Alongside this commitment there will be a reading program with written reports to be handed in each month. The purpose for these reports is engagement with the subject and accountability, assisting you to reach the objectives of this course.
