FX-2013 Is On the Road And Headed Your Way!

This generation of believers is following Christ, making Him known, and accepting the risks of taking the Gospel to even the hardest places. Is God leading you to serve in some of the “world’s difficult places”? Not sure where to begin? The Frontline Experience is designed to help equip you for this pursuit.

In 2013, Frontline Missions International will be hosting three FX conferences in three different cities along the East Coast! Choose either a one-day conference in Virginia Beach or New York City or an extended two-day conference in Brevard, NC.

WHO CAN ATTEND?

The FX program is designed to equip spiritually mature, ministry focused individuals with the skills needed to minister in places where there is open and systematic hostility to the Gospel. If you are 18 years of age or above and feel God’s leading into this type of work, we encourage you to apply. Married couples are welcome, but we are unable to accommodate children.

PROGRAM FEATURES

• Cross-cultural training taught by individuals with extensive training and years of field experience
• Christ-centered, Gospel-saturated approach to developing opportunities for witness in restricted-access fields
• Each of your FX instructors has developed his or her expertise through both formal training and real-world ministry experience. Thus, you will not only learn valuable principles, but you will also learn how to practically apply those principles in actual ministry settings.
• Experienced pioneer missionaries, authors, educators, and advocates with specialties in areas such as culture, linguistics, and cross-cultural engagement.
• Training on topics such as cultural engagement, Muslim evangelism, contextualization, globalism, pioneering strategies, geo-politics and the Gospel, theology of persecution, missions paradigm in the 21st century . . . and more
