Springs of Living Water is happy to announce that there are two academies for pastors and ministers scheduled in the coming months. We are now receiving registrations for the Fall 2015 course. Beginning Tuesday, September 15, from 8 to10 am ET, the Foundations of Church Renewal course will be offered with five conference call sessions held over a twelve-week period.
Then beginning Saturday, February 20, 2016, from 8 to10 am ET, the Foundations of Church Renewal course, with a bi-vocational component, will be offered in a similar twelve-week component.
In the academies, pastors participate in spiritual disciplines folders, offered from the Springs of Living Water initiative. Using a guided syllabus, pastors take a full course in a spiritually oriented, servant-led course for ongoing renewal of a church using the book Springs of Living Water, Christ-centered Church Renewal written by the teacher David Young. In the academies, people from the congregation walk along with the pastor, using the disciplines folder and sharing with the pastor.
David and Joan Young founded the Springs of Living Water Initiative in Church Renewal ten years ago in the Church of the Brethren. An interpretative DVD produced by David Sollenberger is at the top of the Springs website at www.churchrenewalservant.org.
