This 12-week course deliberately brings together “Word, Spirit, Street” perspectives. It seeks to encourage and further equip those wanting to live and share a liberating and empowering gospel in poor, marginalized, and under-reached communities.

This is the first module in the Certificate of Holistic Liberation, offered by The People’s Seminary. Courses have already been run in the USA, South Korea, the UK, France, Morocco, Kenya, Zimbabwe, New Zealand, Canada, Sweden, Tanzania, Kenya, Uganda, Switzerland, South Africa, and Zambia.

Course Themes

The course weaves together five key themes related to ministry on the margins:

  1. God’s identity and mission—and ours
  2. Healing and holistic liberation—biblical foundations and principles
  3. Social prophetic mission—justice, advocacy, and peacemaking
  4. Word on the street—preparing and leadings transformational Bible studies
  5. Practical reflection—how does this work in my life and ministry?

The teaching will be done by Bob and Gracie Ekblad, with help from other Tierra Nueva staff and collaborators from around the world. Bob is one of our valued Servants Elders.
