Ministry Purpose: Pastoral Care Ministries will ensure 24/7 pastoral care services and Kingdom empowerment to everyone who contacts the Rock Church with a need. This is accomplished through training that equips gifted and called men and women to fulfill their LEADERSHIP role in the church of Jesus Christ within the mission, vision and goals of the Rock Church. This ministry is designed to provide leadership mentoring in the Pastoral Care and Chaplaincy Ministry services of the Rock Church.
Church Goal: Ensure that the Manifestation of Kingdom of God power is revealed, understood, desired and delivered to 3.6 million people in San Diego and 1 billion globally by 2025
Scope & Sequence of instruction and experience: The Pastoral Leadership training is a one-year commitment that takes place over three terms on Tuesday evenings:
The curriculum focuses on advanced leadership instruction, leadership mentoring and coaching, practical leadership skill development and personal ministry leadership plan strategies. The pastoral leadership training is considered to be a practical and educational process for mature believers who sense a call to pastoral leadership ministry.
Cost: The tuition is $450 for the full year training ($150 per term). Participants may be expected to purchase some additional, required reading and study materials. The design of the training process is to give personal instruction and practical experience in the full range of biblical church leadership and evangelistic functions. Emphasis will be on Biblical servant-leadership that models the Kingdom of God authority and humility of Jesus Christ.
Leadership Instruction: On a weekly basis the Pastoral Care Ministry team will meet for pastoral mentoring and instruction on specific pastoral leadership topics. As a group, the various study assignments involve readings, discussion, in-class rGroup engagement and rich team-relationship building. Instructors include Rock Church pastors, seminary professors and ministry leaders with expertise in leadership development.
Leadership Training Commitments:
LIFE Class completion is required for serving with the Pastoral Leadership training as well as a current Background Check completion.
