Training at Grace

Forward in Preparation for Service

Through our study of the Bible and our involvement in practical ministry, we learn to practice what we believe to be true.

The Bible calls this “bearing fruit.” Knowledge is essential, but it’s not enough. God’s desire is that we grow in maturity and are mobilized to use His gifts to us for the good of others. We feast on His Word and we exercise through service.

Training Electives

Training Electives at Grace Polaris are designed to equip learners as disciple makers by focusing on a particular area of the Bible, theology, ministry, or culture. These courses enable believers to grow in their love for God and discipling making ability.

The Training Program

This eight-month training program is designed to help believers develop a deeper knowledge and understanding of the Bible, theology, and God’s mission. This robust yet accessible training program consists of three courses: The Message of the Bible, Evangelical Beliefs, and The Church and the Mission of God. The Training Program typically meets on Sunday mornings for discussion and includes some reading assignments.

Advanced Leadership Training

Advanced Leadership Training is a powerful ten-month course designed to help learners make disciples and lead others to do the same (Matthew 28:18–20; 2 Timothy 2:2). The course tests and purifies the theological beliefs of our church’s developing leaders and equips them with critical leadership skills necessary to disciple others and build up the Church (Matthew 4:19; Mark 1:17; Ephesians 4:11–16). Advanced Leadership Training consists of reading, writing, weekly mentoring, and a monthly meeting.
