School of Leaders in the G12 System

Disciple making is a continuous process. It will not just end up in Post-Encounter stage. After the Post- Encounter, the student will now enter the School of Leaders. The School of Leaders prepares cell members to fulfill Christ's call upon their lives carefully preparing them for disciple making and cell leading. The topics in this school type gathering include foundational Christian doctrine. Students also will be taught in personal development, Christian life skills and cell leadership. Along with the Encounters, the School of Leadership gives complete and effective training in disciple making.

One of the reasons why a believer should undergo the School of Leaders is to prepare that believer to become an efficient cell leader with the ability to win lives for Christ. This trained leader now can duplicate the process and continue to disciple new believers until they become successful leaders. It is a course of uncomplicated teaching, orientated to practical things, which motivates people to learn themselves.

Basically the courses cover three primary areas of study and ministry activation. The number one area is building the foundations in Christ. This focuses on building a strong and meaningful foundation for your relationship with the Lord Jesus Christ as well as a foundation for Christian living. It actually includes the doctrines of the Bible as well as seminars on the family and courtship.

Another is about cell group ministry. This focuses on preparing and training the believer in the fundamentals of leading a Cell Group as well as seminars on intercession, evangelism and service. After the Disciples knew how to lead a cell group they will be taught now on the leadership skills through the Government of 12. Essential leadership skills and anointing necessary to mentor leaders will now be imparted. This is necessary to multiply cell groups and build groups of 12. There is then deeper instruction in the process of Consolidation, the role of Holy Spirit in their lives and ministry, and counseling. This School of Leaders will usually last for three semesters of ten weeks each.

Post-Encounter in the G12 System

After experiencing a fresh, powerful and life-changing weekend with the Lord Jesus Christ, it comes as no surprise that the enemy of our souls, Satan, is not very happy! He will do his best to snatch back the newly freed people. That is why the G12 System designed a Post-Encounter sessions. This session is a ten-week course designed to establish basic biblical truths in the life of the new believers and to lay the foundation for a whole new lifestyle built upon God's Word and prayer. This is basically a follow-up class and is intended to help the participants continue to grow and solidify what God began in their lives at the Encounter God Retreat.

The main purpose of this Post-Encounter is to sustain the fire and also help people grow in their relationship with God and commit to coming alongside them as they learn more about themselves and God the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit. The Post-Encounter classes offer additional teachings, people committed to pray for you and to be available to you to help you walk out what God is showing and teaching you, and the opportunity to be able to go further with God on your spiritual journey.

Classes for Post-Encounter begin 1 or 2 weeks after the Encounter God Retreat. The School of Leaders Director will usually make the schedule for the Post-Encounter Classes. Some churches designed it every Wednesday evening others also depending on the availability of the majority. The class will normally consist of worship, lessons, small group discussion and group prayer. Some teachers of the Post-Encounter also will give exams to their students.
