Session 1
Title: The 40/80 window: the Dark Continent of Europe
Objective: help students gain a basic understanding of the grip that post-modernism, materialism and atheism has on modern Europe, the challenge of reaching immigrants and refugees there and the encouraging advancements seen in a few places.
Summary: Long a Christian continent, and the birthplace of the modern missions movement, Europe must now be considered a mission-field unto itself. Stories, statistics and trends will be shared to illustrate both the unique challenges to ministering to Europeans and immigrants and the wonderful opportunities and joys of laboring there.
Session 2
Title: Leadership that Doesn’t Stink
Objective: the future leaders of churches, mission agencies and teams will be challenged to lead after the model of David … by grace and with confidence.
Summary: the bigger and more diverse a team gets, the harder it is to lead, and our temptation as leaders is to take the easy way out. When we do this, however, we very often stifle the growth of our teams and choke the life out of the people we lead. We ought to look at David’s example … how he suffered under the leadership of Saul, blazed a new path in his own leadership and handled the rebellion of Absalom.
