'Training Mind-shifts' - old skool style

The Art of Minsitry Training, the course that MTS runs for pastors wanting to get into the movement, has a paper called 'Training Mindshifts'. I like this paper because it captures the spirit of the MTS movement, resonantes with many of the best bits about the emerging church movement:

  1. From running programs to building people
  2. From an event strategy to a training strategy
  3. From using people to growing people
  4. From filling gaps to training new workers
  5. From solving problems to helping people make progress
  6. From ordained ministry to team leadership
  7. From church polity to ministry partnership
  8. From relying on training institutions to establishing local training
  9. From immediate pressures to long-term expansion
  10. From management to ministry
  11. From church growth to gospel growth
