Why choose Explore?

If you are heading for cross-cultural mission service and need some flexibility in your studies, then our 13-week online mission training course is for you. Or maybe you would simply like to know more about mission and wish explore God’s will for your life.

Explore is a 13-week online programme that provides a foundation for cross-cultural mission service. It has been taken by over 180 students in 33 different countries!

As part of an online community, you will participate in an interactive course written and facilitated by a training team who have current mission experience. The journey takes you through the four modules:

1) Who am I?

3) Culture and living in community

The course will provide you with a biblical foundation for your life and ministry. Examining the issues of effective teamwork and how to develop and maintain healthy relationships will also be studied. You will gain a deeper understanding of culture, current trends in mission and the effects of transition, enabling you to relate and integrate more easily across cultures. A variety of tools will be provided throughout the course including programme planning and management.

The course material is delivered through a repeating weekly pattern of online lessons and forum discussions. A downloadable workbook will be commented on by the tutor assigned to you.

  • Director for Candidates, OMF International (UK)
    I recommend this course for those who are beginning to explore the Mission of God in greater depth. Though not residential, the course includes regular online community learning, providing a sense of belonging and the real challenge and richness of learning with others. The course curriculum is well thought through. It demands personal reflection, real application and covers a wide range of very relevant issues.

     

    Personnel Coordinator, Interserve England & Wales
    Explore is excellent! It fills the gaps in knowledge, even for mature Christians with little experience of cross-cultural mission issues. As well as learning, students appreciate the on-line community and mentoring aspects. Studying at home is a bonus as our applicants juggle with family life and a full-time job.
