Today's Training Needs

It’s a real challenge to provide the right training that fits with all the time, financial and personal constraints of everyday life. For most church members it is not practical to go off to a Bible College or seminary for full-time training.

This graph shows that if this is true for the church in the West, it is even more true for the fast-growing church in the rest of the world.

How We Meet the Needs

It is estimated there are over 2 million pastors who have never been trained how to handle the Word of God. The Church is adding 50 thousand new believers every day. How are these people going to be trained:

  • to raise up and release new leaders in the church
  • to be effective in discipleship
  • to continue their grow in the Gospel?

The following video shows how Veritas is stepping in to answer these questions:

What Makes Us Unique

We have pioneered Competency Based Theological Education that bridges the divide between Non-formal and Formal Education.

Our unique training process works in any culture, and can function even if resources are limited and without needing to go away to Bible training institutes. Three main elements make the philosophy and practice of Integrated Leadership Development (ILD) unique are:

  1. It all happens in the local church
  2. The whole person is developed
  3. The Bible and the practical world are brought together.
