Training is provided by experienced cross-cultural workers. It takes place July 2-21, 2017 (3 weeks duration) in Detroit, MI. Adults pay $1,600 and children under 12 pay $500 (meals, lodging and program costs, but of course, not travel costs). For more information, contact
go@christar.org

2) Learn to Merge Prayer + Missions at Herrnhut, where Moravians Began

Remember John Robb? I do. He’s been involved in researching unreached peoples (and praying for them) since the mid-seventies. He’s still at it, calling prayer advocates and missions mobilizers to gather in the very town in which the Moravian experience began: Herrnhut. Learn more about the Moravian experience at…

3) Want to see a visual representation of cross-cultural ministry?

The Propempo folks helped put together a little metaphor of cross-cultural work. (Warning: This video does contain violence.)

A Parable of Two Beginner Missionaries from Propempo International on Vimeo.

Of course, the violence is a metaphorical hammer, striking the blows in simulating cross-cultural ministry’s toll on the worker. If you’d like to hear the actual workshop (upon which the 2-minute video is based), check out…

5) “More Than Dreams:” Videos to Share with Muslim Seekers

Haven’t watched ALL these, but wow… They’re extremely powerful — and free!

6) The Academy of Frontier Media and Arts

The much acclaimed School of Frontier Media, and the Visual Arts for Missions school, have combined and relaunched as the brand new Academy of Frontier Media and Arts. This academy-styled school will teach you how to communicate the Kingdom of God cross-culturally through various media, like photography, film, art, and design. Bottom line: Consider training by the very people who are out there creating for the extension of God’s Kingdom.

8) Want Free Online Small Group Training In Multiplying Disciples?

Now you can get it. Just click to…

http://www.ZumeProject.com

This training is completely free of charge and is designed for groups of 4-12. It starts with 9 weeks, 2 hours per session. Everything is built into the online training site. The videos are short (5 minutes in most cases), followed by discussion, then a learning/doing activity. It’s VERY active. The vision is to create and multiply groups of disciples who make other disciples.
