Bugiri, Uganda

Uganda is considered “significantly reached”, but there is an increasing need for theological clarity and biblical instruction. TLI is working to help strengthen churches in the central region where theological education is out of reach for many. The goal of this training is to better equip local church leaders to understand and communicate God's Word in their context of ministry.

CURRICULUM

Course 2 - Knowing the Bible's Story

COURSE DESCRIPTION

Course 2 explores the general flow of Christ-centered redemptive history from Genesis to Revelation. Major themes that appear throughout—each including aspects of continuity and discontinuity—are God’s kingdom, covenants, people, kingship, priesthood, prophetic ministry, and mission. Each theme is embedded within Scripture’s testimony to the fundamental storyline of God’s plan to reconcile the world to himself under Christ’s kingship for his glory. The point of the whole course is to equip the trainees to answer the hermeneutical Question 2: How does it fit in the Bible? The issue of the Bible’s whole story is hermeneutically potent and foundational to handling individual texts and passages rightly.

The vision of Training Leaders International brings biblical and theological content to the people best positioned to pass it on to others. Most forms of short-term mission are fraught with troubling downsides, but this pattern of transferring serious theological nourishment is enriching both parties to the glory of God.
