Bible Training Yorkshire, a partnership between Yorkshire Gospel Partnership and Christ Church Fulwood, opens its doors for the first time in September.
The need for the gospel in the UK, and especially in Yorkshire, is desperate. Ben Cooper, Minister for Training at Christ Church Fulwood, said: ‘We need men and women speaking of Jesus, preaching and teaching the Bible, and we need lots of them. God’s strategy for equipping the church to meet this need is through effective Bible training, Bible training to multiply ministry and reform churches. With Bible Training Yorkshire this is exactly what we are seeking to do. Our aim is to train trainers to train God’s people to train one another, building the body of Christ in truth and love.’
The course builds on Fulwood’s well- established Bible Training Course and lasts one day a week. From September the course will operate from two venues, York and Sheffield, and is suitable for anyone who is already involved in regular Bible teaching of some kind, but who has been encouraged by their church leaders to seek training for further Bible teaching in the future.
