How can our churches more faithfully live and lead in ways that are attentive to what God is doing? This course discusses leadership through the primary theological perspective of missional ecclesiology and offers a rethink of leadership practices that focus on the few toward shared leadership that involves and engages the rest of the church in a more authentic kingdom partnership. This course is designed for lay persons, lay leaders, full-time staff, and pastors. Participants are encouraged to come as cell groups, ministry teams, leadership or staff teams, to learn and reflect on how they lead together in their own contexts. (NOTE: if you are coming as a team, please email the instructor before the start of the course so that he will ensure you are grouped with your own team members for the relevant discussions.)<\/em><\/p>\n Rev Dr Bernard Chao is Director of EQUIP and Lecturer in Practical Theology at Trinity Theological College. He teaches courses in pastoral theology, Christian leadership, Christian education, youth ministry, and Wesleyan theology and is an ordained minister with The Methodist Church in Singapore (Trinity Annual Conference) since 2005.
