Advanced leadership Training

Post Secondary

Advanced Leadership Training

Our Advanced Leadership Training (ALT) series is back this summer as we equip ACF/CCF post-secondary students to be effective leaders at their campus fellowship.

 

This training aims to equip and strengthen all students to be a witnessing community on their campus with practical skills and theological implications. The series will run throughout the summer for all Post-Secondary students and leaders. Some topics may include vision and leadership, Asian-Canadian identity, prayer and evangelism, mental health training and seminars, and many more. Topics are regularly updated and contextualized for ACF/CCF students.

Vision and Leadership (Post Campus Challenge Follow-up)

*Only for committee members who attended CC 2024's Vision and Leadership Workshop
 

Campus Challenge’s Vision and Leadership workshop ended off with the question of assessing your Spiritual Rhythm while also seeking vision for your fellowship. AFC would love to continue to walk alongside you and your committee in the conversation continuing from Campus Challenge’s Vision and Leadership if you so desire to.​

Vision and Leadership

*Exclusive to current ACF/CCF Committee Members only 
 

During this two-part training, we will discuss the following: What is our identity as a campus fellowship, and why do we exist as a witnessing community? What is a vision, and why do we cast a vision in our fellowship? More importantly, what is the biblical vision that we need to carry out as a body of Christ? The training will also include a time for student leaders to reflect biblically and the reality of God’s work in their community. From there, leaders will be able to discern and develop a well-rounded vision for their fellowship.

Life Together: Spiritual Practices for Missional Students

This is a workshop designed to cultivate deep spiritual formation through a “rule of life”—a set of intentional rhythms and habits of grace that shape us and counteract the “de-formation” of university life. Students will learn how to live out their discipleship in community, being formed into the image of Christ together.

Women in Leadership - August 26, 7-9pm (Online. Women only)

How can Christian women step into their God-given gifts of leadership in mostly male-dominated leadership structures? We will examine the theological and practical imperatives for women to take up space in organizational structures, using their voices and gifts to bless and cultivate courageous communities for the flourishing of all. We will discuss the roles of men and women in creating leadership cultures that are equal and just.

Prayer

Prayer changes everything. It’s also a vital practice that Christians ought to do regularly, but shockingly enough, most Christians have never been taught how to pray. Come unlearn monkey-see-monkey-do practices, learn how Jesus taught his disciples how to pray, and learn how to connect our prayers to the campus.

Leading Small Group

The Christian life is meant to be lived out in the context of community. Small groups provide spaces for deeper connection, growth, exploring God’s mission with brothers and sisters in Christ, and welcoming others to encounter Jesus. Community is also messy, but beautiful things happen in that messiness. Come learn how to form, lead, and multiply small groups.

Leading Inductive Bible Study (IBS)

Inductive Bible Study is a great way of studying the Bible on your own or with others. As we enter into Scripture, we want to be open, attentive, and curious, paying attention to the background and historical context and how God is speaking to each one of us while being faithful to the Scriptures and letting the word speak for itself. This definitely isn’t the easiest thing to pick up. It requires practice. Come join this 2-part workshop as you learn about and lead Inductive Bible Study.

Evangelism and Witness

Evangelism is often misconstrued as solely overseas, or requiring a special calling. But campus fellowships can act as powerful witnessing communities. In this workshop, we’ll learn about how we can regularly engage in student outreach and about how our conduct and commitment to the common good is also of utmost importance and goes hand in hand with the declaration of the gospel.

Apologetics

We are called to make a defense to everyone who asks us to give an account for the hope that is in us. Yet more often we are scared of doing so because we do not know what to say. This workshop will address those concerns and bring about a sense of joy in apologetics.

Asian-Canadian Identity

What does the Gospel say about our identity as Asian Canadians? Scripture says that God created ethnicity to accomplish His purpose. If this is true, how can we redeem and reconcile with the various parts of our ethnic heritage and embrace the gifts that God has given us?

Hospitality

Jesus says that the second greatest commandment is, “You shall love your neighbor as yourself”. This is exemplified throughout the Bible in many different ways beyond just Jesus’ life and teaching. Hospitality can take on various forms but we’ll be going through the heart of hospitality and examine how Jesus calls us to care for one another and what that might look like in our relationships. 

Worship

When people talk about worship, they often misconstrue it as just singing or music. In this workshop, we will explore what worship can look like in various facets of life, and we will seek to gain a deeper understanding of how worship originates from a relationship with God. We will also examine how that relationship and understanding of God bring a deeper sense of worship to our lives.
