Spiritual Leadership & Discipleship
Most pastors in rural Africa have a calling from God but little or no training. They often lack the necessities for ministry. This is why Possibilities Africa recruits pastors for a two-year Bible-based, Gospel-centered training. Pastors and spiritual leaders embrace holistic ministry through:
- Several weeklong training sessions.
- Joining a local group of other Possibilities Africa pastors (10-30) for encouragement, fellowship, and accountability.
- Individual training and encouragement with onsite visits from the Possibilities Africa staff.
Pastors return to their communities and model those groups to their congregations, who are encouraged to start similar groups for further discipleship.
Family dynamics, workplace ethics, government practices—all these and more change as our leaders invite the presence of Jesus into every aspect of life. Only the gospel of Jesus Christ has the power to change hearts and minds. When someone embraces God’s love and mercy, that person is made new.
Through this lens of God’s mercy, leaders preach the gospel, disciple believers, and apply life-giving Biblical principles so that every aspect of their community begins to flourish. Over 3,150 spiritual leaders go through training programs.
