The Transformed Listeners Initiative will be conducting an 18 week trial cohort. We are seeking a broad range of 'preachers' to participate- both lay and ordained leaders, preaching in a variety of settings. Preachers can be in congregational settings and other ministry connections.
The Transformed Listeners Initiative is seeking many different preaching styles, contexts, and methods. The program will offer a stipend to the preachers and/or their communities with $1000 toward their continuing education budget. A few examples of the curriculum include community organizing, preaching, and emotional intelligence.
Participants in the trial cohort will meet weekly on Zoom (roughly 1 hour per week).
Cohorts will meet on Zoom for 1-1.5 hours. Cohorts meet weekly at the same time for 18 weeks.
The trial cohort begins March 6th/7th and will extend into the first week of July. Active participation in the program will be required to ensure the distribution of the participant stipend.
Only 24 participants will be a part of the Transformed Listeners Initiative Trial Cohort. Please apply by March 1st with this form: https://forms.office.com/r/AfQT6BTsY6
