T-LINK proposes a holistic

solution for the following challenges

Churches in Challenging Contexts

We are particularly concerned with churches in less favored contexts in Brazil and Portuguese-speaking Africa, which have difficulty to access resources and training, and absence of accessible, practical, and relevant support. Often, as churches try to imitate and import successful models, they struggle with their own identity.

Theological Institutions facing the risk of shutting down

Traditional and content-based programs with little relevance considering the needs and reality of the local churches. Programs that are, in great part, focused at the individual (student) as primary “client”, not at the local church.

Pastors with restricted education

Pastors suffer from overload and burn-out because of outdated mindsets, dysfunctional practices, absence of teams, and limited financial resources. Often, these started in inefficient leadership training processes and structures for the local church.

Our Strategy

Strategic partnerships empower local institutions in remote areas to provide relevant, contextualized, and competency-based leadership training to pastors in local churches.

MASTER IN BIBLICAL LEADERSHIP

Competency-based training for seasoned leaders.

Most MABL programs are not designed for senior pastors. We offer a MABL in conjunction with local theological institutions to equip local pastors to build core vision, values and strategies for effective leadership development into the church DNA and culture. Since we focus on the leaders of the church, our program is focused on hands-on transformation customized to each leader and his church. This process builds godly character (heart), forges a strong theology and worldview (head), and nurtures relational and practical skills (hand). Each pastor will discuss how his church will develop mature and passionate Christ followers, well rounded and spirit powered leaders and dynamic and effective leadership teams, that lead with integrity, competence and compassion in every dimension of life (family, work, ministry and society). Also, how he will identify and groom the next generation of leaders to become effective disciplers of others, resulting in the multiplication of healthy churches for generations!

EMPOWERING EXISTING THEOLOGICAL INSTITUTIONS

Closing the gap between theological institutions and the church.

We promote cooperative, interdependent and synergistic partnerships between theological institutions and local churches. Our MABL is the first step to promote a gradual transition at theological institutions to a theological education that is holistic, contextualized, relevant and competency-based. TLINK provides training to assist institutions in the preparation and implementation process. Our goal is to establish a network of theological institutions who want to actively partner with the local church in their ministry, theology, and leadership training efforts.

IMPACTING THE WORLD THROUGH THE LOCAL CHURCH

Assisting leadership formation in and for the local church.

The local church sits at the heart of God’s leadership development strategy as the natural, rich environment in which whole-life leadership development and discipleship can be fostered. We encourage the church to engage in inquiry, reflection, assessment and alignment of its practices, structures and worldview to biblical principles. Once a pastor concludes the MABL, he and his church embrace a strategy to build up the church for ministry, raising new leaders, multiplying the church, and impacting the kingdom. This leadership training not only occurs in the church, but it is tailored to the specific context of the local church, with its particlar challenges and opportunities.

Together, we can be used by God!

Missions is a matter of a special and significant partnership

God, as the One who calls.

The Missionary, under the authority of the mission agency, as the one who goes.

And a Partner Team of caring, praying, and giving people whose participation makes it possible to engage in the work to impact others’ lives!

Pray for us

For wisdom, insight and discernment as we grow a network of partner institutions, and to have like-minded and passionate influential leaders come alongside to advance His cause.

For local partners (individuals, churches, theological institutions) who embrace and live out a biblical leadership culture and become transformational and vibrant agents and communities that foster and nurture healthy, biblical leadership and service.
