This is a developmental track that requires some reading and writing and is intended to help those pursuing ministry trajectories in the future. Applications will be sent out in the next few months so let Chip know if you are interested.
GLOBAL THEOLOGICAL ROUNDTABLE - Stephanie Fain and Kaci Jackson are organizing a time where we can dialogue over various theological, practical, and missional issues that have come up in our trainings in the last few years. Chip will guide discussions but the time will be oriented toward open dialogue over the topics organized by Stephanie and Kaci. This will begin in June and start at 7 am in B304. The proposed days of the summer are June 2, June 30, July 21, and July 28. The first topic will be related to boiling goats in their mother's milk or better known as the Mosaic law and how we should apply it as Christians today. Email Stephanie at to stay in the loop on topics and details.
2ND SUNDAY PRAYER REMINDER - Just a reminder that we gather every 2nd Sunday to pray for our partners whom we have sent! It starts at 8 am in the community room.
INTERESTED IN GOING MID-TERM? - If you are interested in spending 2 months - 2 years sharing the gospel in a cross-cultural context and contributing to church-planting or church-strengthening efforts, contact Andrew Whitehead at andrew@brookhills.org.
THE GLOBAL DISPATCH – War-time realities call for "dispatches" - urgent messages that need immediate attention and collective priority for the sake of the mission. This blog is intended to relay those urgent messages related to global realities that will affect how we pray as members, how we stay informed as global Christians, and how we partner together as a local church to advance the cause of the gospel to the least-reached. Global will be dispatching these blog articles every two weeks at brookhills.org/dispatch.
