Instructor

Understanding your strengths and weaknesses can help you sharpen your ministry today and help you make good decisions about what comes next. We'll dive into CliftonStrengths (formerly StrengthsFinder) to help you:
- Learn how you are built and how you can excel
- Develop your strengths right where you are
- Identify and mitigate your weaknesses
- Consider and prepare for your future
We'll also talk about discerning your future vocation and career steps, look at possible paths within InterVarsity, and developing relationships that will help you invest in your leadership and steward your vocational development.
No prior experience with strengths is necessary, if you haven't taken the assessment we'll work with you to get it done as part of your pre-course.

Holy Spirit on Campus: Experiencing the Power and Presence of the Holy Spirit in Ministry
Description

Instructor
|

|
With his last words on earth, Jesus made a huge promise: “But you will receive power when the Holy Spirit comes on you...” (Acts 1:8). As you step on campus, do you feel that you’re operating out of the power of God’s Spirit? In this learning environment we’ve created spaces to experience the power and presence of God, while learning how to replicate these experiences in the ministries you serve. We’ll teach rhythms that will help you biblically and theologically ground and debrief these experiences, so that your students can learn to do the things that Jesus did, for the reasons he did them.

Four Roots: Planting and Growing Thriving Community College Ministries
DESCRIPTION
|
INSTRUCTOR
|
DETAILS
|
|---|
| Community college ministry is becoming increasingly common in InterVarsity, but how exactly it's supposed to work can still feel like a mystery! You might be asking, "How do I even start a CC ministry? And once I've started it, how do I keep it alive?" The answer is, “The Four Roots.” Based on research from an Underserved Institutions project, this framework for CC ministry will equip and empower you with a clear roadmap in the four roots of campus leadership, campus rhythms, community partnership, and area support. You will explore each “root,” diagnose your CC chapter in that “root,” and learn tools to achieve the next growth step. This course is open for staff and volunteers who are already working in community college ministry or are planning to start working at a specific community college in the coming school year. |
