CTMM 2020: Module 1

from $200.00

Our Certificate in Transformational Ministry at the Margins (CTMM) is designed for those already serving (or feeling called to pioneer work) amongst poor and marginalized communities. In this training we seek to deliberately bring together Word, Spirit, and Street perspectives (see video), in order to encourage and further equip practitioners wanting to live and share a liberating and empowering gospel in poor, marginalized, and under-reached communities.

The CTMM normally consists of three, four-day trainings offered over 9-12 months in a host country. We have completed CTMMs in the USA, South Korea, the UK, France, Morocco, Kenya, Zimbabwe, New Zealand, and Canada, and are currently in process in Sweden, Tanzania, Kenya, and Uganda.

We are now offering Module One of our Certificate in Transformational Ministry at the Margins (CTMM) over fifteen weeks beginning September 8 as a weekly training via Zoom.

The teaching will be done by Bob and Gracie Ekblad, with help from other Tierra Nueva staff and collaborators from around the world.

15 Sessions: Tuesdays, 12:00 - 1:30 PM (PST)

At a time when the Body of Christ seems increasingly divided across ideological lines, we delve deep in to Scripture to explore together, through Old and New Testaments, what Kingdom Identity really is and how we might increasingly live and minister from that place. 

We encounter a Gospel that promotes both charismatic and social prophetic practices; moving in the gifts of the Spirit and dismantling systems that oppress the poor; prophetic evangelism and liberation theology.  And we discover that theological reflection, inspired by the Spirit, has the power to energize and awaken the Body of Christ (in all its varied forms) to its true calling and mission in this world. 

The course weaves together five key themes related to ministry on the margins:

  1. God’s identity and mission—and ours

  2. Healing and holistic liberation—biblical foundations and principles

  3. Social prophetic mission—justice, advocacy, and peacemaking

  4. Word on the street—preparing and leadings transformational Bible studies

  5. Practical reflection—how does this work in my life and ministry?
