Republished from the White Wing Messenger<br />
“In the past, we heard some say if you<br />
want to hide knowledge from certain<br />
Christians, write it in a book. They won’t<br />
read it.” This quote was proven obsolete<br />
by Dr Sonia Martin, as 70 plus students in<br />
Trinidad and Tobago, experienced<br />
her engaging teaching style during<br />
the 3-day training of the Centre for<br />
Biblical Leadership’s module ‘Become<br />
a Church with Impact’<br />
The module explained the importance<br />
of a biblically defined vision<br />
and introduced leaders to the ten<br />
characteristics of a healthy church<br />
which can be influential in generally<br />
making a difference.<br />
The interactive gathering, included breakout<br />
sessions, where groups were randomly<br />
formed to discuss pertinent topics, with<br />
one of the more significant ones being<br />
The introduction to Take your Church’s<br />
Pulse Tool (TYCP). This is a tool that that<br />
can help diagnose an assembly’s health<br />
by evaluating key areas of church life.<br />
Held at the Christian Fellowship Ministries<br />
– Church of God of Prophecy, Palmiste,<br />
Trinidad, from September 20 – 22,<br />
<strong>2018</strong>, the event was executed under the<br />
