Raising Up Leaders

From the Harvest,
For the Harvest

In 2013 Clint Bieri & Josh Franks heard from Jesus that the way to change the world was to raise up the next generation of ministry leaders and do it in a way that was affordable, accessible, and approved. More men and women who are equipped as ministry leaders is what will bring hope to a world which is in desperate need. Jesus told us to pray to the Lord of the harvest that He would raise up more workers. They began praying and Jesus invited them to equip those that he was raising up. We believe each of our students is an answer to this Luke 10:2 prayer request. If you are interested in learning more about what the program covers, here are our book lists:

It is my hope and prayer that more young men and women would step into the story God has written for them in their lives.

Partnerships

The LEAD Program has partnered with The Christian and Missionary Alliance as well as Alliance colleges and seminaries.

These partnerships ensure that licensing standards are not only met but exceeded. As well, partnerships with Alliance schools allow our graduates to continue their education into undergraduate and graduate programs.

THE CALL

”In every generation, there must be men and women who choose to walk deeply with God, embrace His mission as their own, and, fully aware of the rigors of the higher path, choose to pour out their lives so that the Kingdom may advance unhindered into the future.”
– Dr. Dan Scarrow

 

THE PROCESS

LEAD is a two-and-a-half year program committed to equipping men and women to be ministry leaders. Each month students will be trained, equipped, and then held accountable in some aspect of deepening your Intimacy with Christ, Missional Living, and Disciple-Making Discipleship. The LEAD Program is a Spiritual Formation process that also meets academic requirements for licensing within the Christian and Missionary Alliance.

 

THE FOCUS

Everything is connected with your intimacy with Christ. When we hang out with Jesus long enough our heart will beat like his. And as you embrace the mission of God as your own, you grow in being a disciple-making disciple. We believe this is how the Kingdom of God is advanced.

 

CORE QUESTIONS

Each month, in cohort as well as in monthly coaching sessions, four primary questions will be answered by the LEAD student.

    • Share at least one way that the course content affected your intimacy with God.
    • Share at least one way that the course content impacted your missional living.
    • Share at least one way that the course content impacted how you lead others to be disciples of Jesus.
    • Share at least one way that the course content has impacted your leadership in the Kingdom

By focusing both the cohort gathering and coaching sessions with these questions we hope to ingrain in each of our leaders that they are to focus first on their own walk with Jesus, then their life on mission, how they lead others as disciples of Jesus, and how they lead in a servant posture.
