Series: Living Out a Developmental Mindset
| Category | Church > Partnership |
| Resource Owner | Compassion International |
This module is part of the Equipping for Partnership series, an ongoing library of learning modules intended to equip and empower frontline Compassion staff to serve the local church.
Living out a Developmental Mindset is intended to help you to apply this mindset in your work with the church. Being developmental is not easy – it often takes longer, it looks different for each role, and there can be organizational or personal barriers in the way. The activities in this course will help you and your team discover the best way to approach the church in a way that builds long-term ownership, capacity, and resources. This module is appropriate for anyone who supports frontline church partners.
There is no global deadline for completing any of these activities, and you can access them as often as needed. Talk with your supervisor to plan a pace of development that works best for you.
When you complete the activities in this module, we would appreciate your feedback. Please click the link below to take a brief survey:
