MISSION SHAPED MINISTRY

"I thoroughly recommend the mission shaped ministry course. We are at a crossroads in the life of the Church in our land. The challenge is to engage with a culture that has walked away from church, but is deeply interested in spiritual things. This course is intended to equip individuals and faith communities not only to think missionally, but to imagine new ways of being church. It brings the recent experience of fresh expressions of church which are springing up throughout the land, alongside some serious theological reflection which will enable participants to learn from the past, and the recent past, and prepare for the future. I know of no other course which will more effectively equip people at many levels, to "do" church in a way that reaches our culture."
Andy Scarcliffe, Mission Adviser, Baptist Union Scotland

Hilton Church is going to be hosting an MSM course beginning on 16th January. Full details of the course are here. John & Olive Drane will be the main tutors for the course, which is very exciting. If you are part of Hilton Church and the possibility of sharing in such a course, and being involved in imagining new ways of being church fires your soul, speak me to me soon!
