As Christianity grows rapidly in the global south, the need for new pastors grows as well. For every fifty new believers, one new pastor is needed to lead an average congregation.
This week, On the Move producer Jared White is joined by Dr. Steve White, the co-founder and CEO of 21C International.
Key points from this episode:
- There are 50,000+ new Christians everyday in the global south; that requires 1,000 new Christian pastors everyday
- Formal training and non-formal training both play a critical role in pastoral training in the global south
- Non-formal training provides an opportunity for exponential growth for pastors
