Bringing the teaching of the Center for Steward Leader Studies to the continent of Africa
Steward leadership training is now available in a contextualized format for ministry leaders and laypeople across the continent of Africa. Participants can access and download the same content from the popular two-day Steward Leader seminar that has been presented in more than thirteen African countries and experience it either individually or as a small group.
What is being offered:
Becoming a Steward Leader is a contextualized, downloadable course that addresses practical issues of leadership in the church, ministry, business, and even the home. It is available in English, French, and Portuguese, making it accessible to virtually all African leaders and laypeople across the continent. The downloadable resources for the course include:
- A personal guidebook containing lesson material, personal testimonials by key African men and women in current leadership positions, and interactive personal application sections that help the participant create his or her own Steward Life Plan,
- Three-and-a-half hours of video instruction (available in all three languages) broken down into eight lessons that cover the key themes of steward theology, and
- A facilitator guide that assists anyone in leading a small group through the course in a multiple week or intensive weekend training experience.
