Timothy Leadership Training Program

Timothy Leadership Training Program Timothy Leadership Training Program provides educational resources to ministry leaders without means of formal education.

The Timothy Leadership Training Institute (TLTI) began in 1997 after retired Calvin Theological Seminary professors and active missionaries desired to train pastors who had not had opportunities for formal religious training. The training manuals used to instruct these pastors use inductive-style teaching, allowing anyone who has previously received training to facilitate their own group. The des

ire is that these newly trained pastors go back to their congregations and train their church leaders and lay pastors. TLTI is in the business of training trainers. Its ultimate goal is to help churches become self-sustainable. TLTI was launched as an inter-denominational training institute. The program was first piloted in Africa and was then known as Project Africa. The success of the teaching curriculum soon caught fire and currently, TLTI has grown to training in over 50 countries and tracking just first-generation participants, TLTI has trained well over 10,000 trainees. The training manuals are currently available in 18 languages. Our mandate comes from 2 Timothy 2:2: "The things you have heard me teach before many witnesses, commit to faithful people who shall be able to teach others also."

Meet Pastor Sophon from Cambodia. Pastor Sophon and his wife, Mrs. Thach, have 3 daughters. Pastor Sophon attended TLT training to become a better pastor. Through the TLT manuals, he created action plans to apply his learning and impact his community. One Action Plan led him to visit and listen to the people in his neighborhood. As a result, Mr. Pay's heart opened to accept Jesus as his own Savior.
Another Action Plan that Pastor Sophon and his family practiced was to plant 400 banana trees. They can feed themselves and help others in the community too. In fact recently, their farm has expanded to 500 banana trees !
We thank God for leaders like Pastor Sophon, Mrs. Thach, and their TLT trainers Navy Chann-Chhay and Ly Chhay from Resonate Global Mission !

Part 2:
Remember the Rwandan community that was impacted by an Action Plan around harm and violence within families? Read how their story continues.
The pastor started separate men's and women's groups dealing with family life, including spousal concerns. "...Eventually, he instructed people in both classes to write anonymous respectful letters to their spouses addressing problems in their homes. Again, they were instructed to omit identifying details. These letters were then handed in and read publicly in both classes. The effect was electric. People realized what a big problem family harm and violence is and realized that they are not alone. They also realized they could repent and deal with their problems without feeling that they were somehow worse than everyone else. Many couples were able to create greater health in their marriages as a result. Also, harm and violence in families became a subject that could be talked about. This creative approach enabled families to deal with difficult subjects while minimizing their sense of shame. Eventually, there were several who testified publicly about what God has done in their family life."
