Workshop on Theology of  Disability

MAY 3 – 6                                            The Church Jesus Prayed For 

Taught by Dr Michael Cassidy, internationally known Christian Leader and founder of African Enterprise (AE), this course unpacks the ten defining characteristics of the Church that Jesus prayed for. This course is a follow-up to the first course that Michael taught on the Church that Jesus prayed for in 2009. Through an exposition of Jesus’ prayer in John 17, Dr Cassidy will outline the nature, function and spirituality of the authentic church. This is a foundational topic that no church leader can afford to ignore. Established and rising church leaders will benefit enormously from this course, and congregations are also encouraged to delegate at least one lay leader to attend, in order to ensure that these critical lessons sink deep into church communities.

The cost for attending this course is R890 (including meals and accommodation).

JUNE 29 – 01 JULY                     Christian Response to Modern Technology

The development of technology revolutionises not only just our society but also our ministry and challenges Christians to brace themselves for change. This seminar will offer both a Biblical foundation and practical guidance for applying technology – particularly information technology such as the Internet – in ministry. Through lectures, demonstrations and discussions, the seminar will review the history and future of technology, examine how churches are using modern technology, and consider various theological and ethical issues relating to technology.  The course is targeted at students and church leaders, and will not assume any prior experience with technology, but will expose leaders to the use of cyber technology for interconnectivity in congregations and facilitate reciprocity. This seminar will be presented by Matthew Clark who has 26 years experience in various field of information technology and as a Christian has a long standing commitment to the integrity of faith in a modern, technologically-driven business world.
