Out of the Darkness... Transformational Discipleship

Romans 12:1-2 (The Message)

So here's what I want you to do, God helping you: Take your everyday, ordinary life—your sleeping, eating, going-to-work, and walking-around life—and place it before God as an offering. Embracing what God does for you is the best thing you can do for him. Don't become so well-adjusted to your culture that you fit into it without even thinking. Instead, fix your attention on God. You'll be changed from the inside out. Readily recognize what he wants from you, and quickly respond to it. Unlike the culture around you, always dragging you down to its level of immaturity, God brings the best out of you, develops well-formed maturity in you.

What is LTC?

The AACF Leadership Training Conference (LTC) is an annual conference designed to equip new AACF campus leadership teams for the upcoming year of ministry. The goal of LTC is three-fold:

  • to build and strengthen each leader’s personal relationship with God,
  • to provide equipping and training of each leader for effective ministry and
  • to network and establish valuable ministry and relationships while learning about developing community through hands-on experience.

Through Christ-centered messages, workshops, worship, prayer and fellowship activities, leaders are developed and challenged to the task at hand and ultimately a lifetime of leadership.

Workshops

This year LTC will feature training and equipping via two forms of workshops, 1) the Workshop series and 2) Workshop electives.

The Workshop Series (T-W) is a 3-part workshop designed to equip and train leaders for specific areas of ministry. When registering, please select one of the following workshop series.

Core Leadership

As God calls specific leaders for specific tasks, those who respond to the call of Core Coordinator seem to take on this task in fear instead of a blessing or gift. Learn how to be effective in handling the many facets of being a Core Coordinator.

Worship

Being a worship leader takes more than knowing how to play an instrument or direct people into a worshipful place. Come learn how Bible study, prayer and personal holiness are key parts of worship leading.

Preparing a Bible Study

Are you ready to lead a Bible study? This workshop will take you from studying a passage of scripture to preparing a lesson.

Small groups

How do I lead them? Where do I start? What are my responsibilities? Come and find out!

Koinonia/Body Life

God calls us to live in community with our brothers and sister in Christ, yet there are different stages and components that are needed for spiritual and physical growth. Come and explore what it takes to be builders of the Body of Christ.

Evangelism

This track will focus on “Evangelism: CPR” for cultivating, planting and reaping God’s harvest as AACF lives out its mission statement to reach into the university and collegiate community with the life-changing message of Jesus Christ.

Workshop Electives (Th) are additional workshops designed for additional ministry training or personal interest.

Registration for the workshop electives will occur at the beginning of the week of LTC (Sunday) on a first-come first- serve basis, with a cap of 25 participants in each elective.

Speakers

AACF Staff

This year, we desire to celebrate God’s continued faithfulness in our growing staff team.

God has added 7 men and women in the past year, to join and serve AACF as campus ministers. We wish the body of AACF to meet them. With the full campus ministry team, we encourage you to anticipate hearing their testimonies of God’s transforming work in their lives as they journey with Jesus that will challenge and inspire us as we gather at the Oaks. These testimonies will be expressed in their leadership of teaching training workshops, plenary sessions, elective workshops and the many activities that are a part of the LTC program.

Questions?

If you have questions or concerns regarding LTC please contact AACF or your campus minister.
