Training

Life-related, practical, accredited!

Training men and women as mature and fruitful ‘whole of life’ disciples of Jesus Christ is our core mission strategy.  This training is focused around a number of courses which have proven to be powerful transforming experiences for many people since they began in 1978. 

Our courses offer not only academic understanding of biblical studies, theology, ethics, apologetics, Christian history and discipleship, but exploration of the implications for personal and vocational life.  Mentors actively assist each student in their course and personal discipleship, helping them engage deeply and practically with the realities of Christian life and mission today.  Integrating Biblical studies with modern scholarship, personal experience and awareness of current issues, the outcome is a worldview and life that are becoming spiritually natural and naturally spiritual. 

Cornerstone Community is a Registered Training Organisation, and is committed to maintaining access, equity and anti-discrimination in all its operations.
