The heart of Jubilee Church Maidstone as a resource church is to develop mature disciples and to train leaders. This is to be a priority if we are to see the body of Christ rise up in the nations. The lack of practical equipping has created a situation where much of the church relies heavily on theoretical training and has neglected practical mentoring and character development.
We want to encourage each one to take advantage of the practical equipping modules we have developed. The courses have been designed to challenge, grow and provoke you to action. They will give you valuable skills and the relevant 'know how' to powerfully impact your generation. We need to remember that this equipping is always a 'means to an end' and never an end in itself. Our heart is to raise up men and women of stature, character and faith, called by God for such a time as this.
All for the King and the Kingdom
