ARE YOU PASSIONATE ABOUT LEADING A CHURCH OR MINISTRY OF FRUITFUL DISCIPLES THAT MAKES A MAJOR IMPACT FOR THE KINGDOM OF GOD?

If so, you are invited to take part in TRANSFORM, an 8-month Freedom In Christ Ministries program to help you ground your leadership firmly in the Biblical principles of identity, freedom, and transformation. Our aim is to equip you to go even deeper into God at a personal level, confident that this will lead to greater influence and fruitfulness in your life and ministry.

How will TRANSFORM be delivered?

You will engage with the program through different means including:

• A recommended schedule of self-study, undertaken in community delivered both off-line and online through video streaming, video conferencing, assignments and discussions across three stages: REPOSITION, RETUNE, and REFOCUS.
• Ensuring your foundations are securely in place through engaging with The Freedom In Christ Course and The Grace Course.
• Two retreats, one in October and one in April, each focusing on deeper, personal transformation through His word, facilitated times of reflection, and rest!
• A core section of 10 weeks focused on becoming the leader that God has called you to be, by unpacking Freedom In Christ’s Freed To Lead course and applying it in a structured way to your specific leadership context.
• A “Give As You Get” track: it’s often the case that greater revelation and understanding of truth comes as you seek to teach it to others. Therefore, in what will be a key part of the program, we will support you with everything you need to teach one of FIC’s foundational courses to others within your sphere of influence. This could be your leadership team, elders or small group leaders.
• Growing your leadership impact through understanding Biblical principles of leading corporate people-systems into greater health.
• Focusing on building a leadership legacy through influencing the next generation.

Who is this for?

The Transform Commitment

For a church or ministry, it’s quite a commitment in both time and money to send its leader on TRANSFORM, but it will be a wise investment that is likely to be repaid many times over in the coming years. Before you are accepted, we will want to make sure that enough time and space will be made available for you to engage with it on a weekly basis and to release you to go on 2 retreats within the year (One online retreat and one in-person retreat).

Cost

Cost is $695 for access to all the online and small group training. All the materials for the course can be purchased at our online bookstore in a bundle for $78.00 at the 35% discount. If you already have some of the resources, you may purchase only the ones you need at 35% off through March 31st, 2023.

There will be two retreats, which are included in the cost of the online and small group training. The September Retreat will be in person if we can do that in a way that is safe and follows all the health guidelines in place at that time. If not, then they will be conducted online. Travel to those retreats, lodging and associated costs will be the responsibility of the Transform participant.

You will not be asked to pay the registration costs until you have submitted your application request and been approved to join the program. At that point, you will receive a link to register.

Here’s a sample of how it works.
