Ep. 27 | Learning in Context: Developing the next generation of leaders through the Immerse program w/ Garry Firth
We talk a lot about leadership development here at Fellowship Pacific and for good reason. Not only is one of our values “Valued Leadership,” but we are also keenly aware of the reality that this mission we’ve been entrusted with will only carry on beyond us if we have leaders to take it.
This is why we have Immerse—our competency-based Mdiv program—that enables churches to invest in the education of upcoming leaders in a way that’s different from the traditional seminary. After all, if we want leaders for our churches who are theologically astute, grounded in God’s Word, and able to lead well then we have to be intentional about training them!
In this episode, Elizabeth Faulkner from our Leadership Development Team talks with Garry Firth, Lead Pastor of The Meeting Place in Nanaimo. Garry was one of the first graduates of the Immerse program and now is an Immerse mentor investing and developing the next generation of students.
They talk about what makes Immerse such a different learning experience and why every church should be looking for leaders who they can support in being equipped and trained through Immerse.
