What?

If you’re involved in leading a new expression of church or seriously interested in starting something you maybe feeling a mixture of excitement and anticipation alongside the reality check of how hard it actually is to start a church from scratch.

ReSource trains people with a vision to engage in mission and start churches in the emerging culture. It’s a yearlong course based around 5 weekends, including a mix of training, coaching, worship and teaching to help you reflect creatively and develop skills to apply to your context.

Our aim is that by the end of the year you will:
• Be equipped to create church in the emerging culture
• Develop mission strategies for your specific context
• Explore and apply skills in leadership and discipleship
• Develop your capacity for spiritual and personal growth

“So many of the radical ideas are coming from the younger leaders who currently don't have the training, skills or clout to bring their dreams into reality. That's where ReSource comes in. I feel like if God gives me a vision now I've got the basic strategy tools as well as relationships with wise old heads to go for it.”

What?

• The aim of the course is to prepare individuals and teams for pioneer ministry in fresh expressions of church within a mixed economy church.

• We envisage that people will come as individuals and as teams.

• We hope that many will begin the course as they are preparing to embark on a fresh expression of church but that others would come at a later or earlier stage in these ministries.

• We hope that many clergy will take part in the course (as these elements have not traditionally been part of clergy training) alongside many lay people.
