ABOUT TLI

Who We Are

Training Leaders International trains pastors and leaders around the world, partnering with local leaders who have invited us to provide the theological training pastors and leaders desperately need. We meet this need through modular training, teaching in formal schools, planting schools and leading international churches.

Staff

Our staff serve in a variety of roles to provide theological training around the world. We have chosen not to list staff and global partners due to the sensitive nature of our work. To request that one of our staff members come speak at your event or at your church, please contact us.
