These foundation stones include a commitment to reach the lost; recognition that ministry involves the individual, the family and the community; the Divine Plumbline counseling model; and revelation as a key to change. In addition, each course may address specific counseling models or tools and specific counseling issues that are considered relevant to a particular target field or ministry.
The school for emerging leadership is a school with the purpose of uniting and challenging the emerging leaders to live in the spirit exercising their gift like a daily and natural thing. We want to inspire and encourage a total dependency on the Holy Spirit and a leadership style that is works in teams, serving and in prayer. We want to improve the ability to relate with people being conscious of their unique and individual identity, design and value, generating a culture of honor and a coexistance of peace that transforms the spheres of society. The purpose is also to equip the emergent leaders with models of pastoral care, mentorship, confrontation, conflict resolution and self-evaluation in order to serve the purposes of God developing other people. We also want to impart and model the vision and fundamental values of Youth With A Mission International and provide information about different areas where you can serve.
