Malawi is one of the poorest countries in the world. Theological famine is also widespread, the health and wealth gospel is prevalent, and Islam is expanding country-wide. Solid formal training options exist in Malawi’s larger cities, but these remain inaccessible to the many city and rural, bi-vocational pastors serving the local churches of Malawi. TLI established its first Non-Formal training site in Malawi in 2019. In August 2022 we will launch our Non-Formal training cohort. The site itself is rural, but pastors and church leaders come from the cities and rural villages for training.

Major themes that appear throughout—each including aspects of continuity and discontinuity—are God’s kingdom, covenants, people, kingship, priesthood, prophetic ministry, and mission.
