Lifelong Learning

Lifelong Learning

As Local Preachers, we are committed to lifelong learning.  We need to continue in developing our understanding and skills in preaching the Word and leading the people of God in worship. 

Continuing development happens in many ways.  Experiences we have, books we read, films we watch can all be opportunities for reflecting on what God is doing in the world, and how we can respond in faith.  We are encouraged to keep a note of the learning we do, and to share some of it with our fellow worship leaders and preachers.  Every three years we have a particular opportunity for doing this as we Review our Ministry - guidelines below.

We also learn from each other through sharing our experiences of preaching and leading.  We are encouraged to share our thoughts and reflections regularly and informally with another preacher in Peer Review.

Here are two Guidance Notes that explain what is required of us, and how peer review can become a helpful part of our continuing development as local preachers:
