Multiplying and accelerating Kingdom leaders in real battlegrounds
Favor’s Portable Bible Schools mobilize new disciple makers in spiritual and physical war zones. Hungry for the Word and training, these emerging leaders come from hidden corners for the two-month theological education Favor brings to rural villages, always moving further outward into the unreached tribes. This ministry helps tens of thousands overcome spiritual maturity barriers by the Holy Spirit and the Word.
Each bootcamp trains participants to live Biblically in Jesus’s Kingdom and multiply disciples in their context. Taught by indigenous leaders to multiply and accelerate new leaders, each Portable Bible School (PBS) rejuvenates lifestyles around the Word and instills a love for the One behind the words, the living Word of God, Jesus Himself.
During the PBS at least two Favor trainers live with the community they are training, often far from cities and their families. Traveling experts on special topics ranging from marital counseling to health and hygiene rotate among the PBS sites, which Favor coordinates in waves of 40+ communities at a time. Each PBS training site requires months of preparation and registration and more months of follow up with community revitalization component ministries like women’s empowerment and trauma counseling, or the construction of new physical churches.
This education, offered for free to all who make the commitment to put the whole Word of God into practice, covers the essential theological training anyone would need to serve as a pastor, teacher, or other function of the body of Christ in their sphere of influence.
Most importantly, each of the tens of thousands of African leaders we graduate through PBSs leave with the Holy Spirit, the means to continually learn from God throughout their walks, leave with a physical Bible in their heart language, and have the training to make disciples and start or rejuvenate healthy congregations of people following Jesus together.
