Course Descriptions
The Disciple's Heart Training Program©
The Disciple's Heart Training Program is the graduate course
of the CCI School for Christian Workers. The purpose is to
open up the world of the disciple for believers.
Students learn personal evangelism, tract ministry,
intercessory prayer and personal devotions. The course
includes required reading, lesson assignments, completion of
an essay on an assigned subject, and participation in a
class evangelism project.
If you desire a study program that is evangelism oriented
and deeply spiritual, The Disciple's Heart Training Program
is the class to enroll in. Some students have taken this
class several times just for the spiritual benefit. (This class is required for anyone seeking to serve in leadership roles at Christian Challenge.)
NOTE: During the 40th SCW we will offer the Disciple's Heart, on Sunday evenings at 5:00 with Lane Fletcher and Monday evenings at 6:00 with Buddy Martin (this class will be video-taped for future classes).
Instructor: Lane Fletcher, Buddy Martin
The Bible Survey - Old Testament & New Testament
The Old Testament Bible Survey provides the student with a better understanding of the Scriptures by bringing history, places, peoples, and festivals in the Old Testament together in a way that the students can see God's plan of redemption working through the ages.
The New Testament Bible Survey then takes the student from between the testaments into the life of Christ, on to the early Church, and includes some Church history.
These courses will make Bible study more meaningful. You
soon find that every verse of Scripture and every book fills
a proper slot in God's program.
The Shepherd's Heart Minister's Training Program©
The emphasis of the Shepherd's Heart Minister's Training
Program is upon preaching and teaching. It is designed for
the pulpit ministry, although it will prove beneficial to
any believer who desires training in teaching skills and in
Bible interpretation. This course covers the gospel ministry
from sermon preparation to Bible interpretation. It includes
lessons such as Pulpit Wisdom, Lessons In Life and Holiness.
It includes spiritual issues such as giftings, deliverances,
and principalities. The student learns forms of speaking
including extemporaneous. Those seeking leadership skills
would be advised to take this course. (This course is highly recommended for all Community Group leaders.)
Instructor: Lawrence "Buddy" Martin
Vision For The Nations
Vision for the Nations is an analysis of the World Christian
Movement based on the Perspectives study program produced by
the US Center for World Missions. The course focus is on
Biblical and historical foundations for missions. It deals
with cross-cultural considerations in communicating the
gospel today. This training program has proven to be an
eye-opener to all who have taken it. Training includes video
presentations by leading missiologists and missionaries from
around the world. Billy Graham said, "There is no volume of
which I know that will inform, inspire and motivate
Christians for world evangelism like the Perspectives
course."
Instructor: Nathan Martin
Conversational Spanish
The focus of the Conversational Spanish class is to give the
student a working knowledge of spoken Spanish. This class is
a perfect introduction to the world of Spanish and is great
for those planning short-term missions trips. Emphasis is
placed on phrases dealing with day-to-day issues and
building a vocabulary of useable words. Opportunities are
also given for the student to have a testimony translated
for use on a missions trip. The instructors are a native-language speaker from Lubbock, TX (Spanish I) and a
former missionary to south Mexico and instructor of Spanish
at the King's Way Missionary Institute in McAllen, TX (Spanish II).
Instructor-Spanish I: Jonathan Martinez
Instructor-Spanish II: Nathan Martin
Tuition and Class Information
Tuition is $35.00 per course (some courses require
additional textbooks). The School runs 13 weeks and
concludes with a graduation banquet. It is recommended that
students use the New American Standard Bible since most
Scripture references are taken from this translation. A
completed registration form (with tuition) must be turned in
before School begins.
