Week 1 & 2 TK Primer Video Interview

Hugh Halter and Stew give us an overview of week one and two of the TK Primer.




New Leader Training

Our New Leader Training is designed to help you get your new group launched, whether your starting a group from scratch or multiplying out of an existing group. New Leader Training starts this Sunday, Aug. 30th and runs for 2 weeks. You can choose from 2 class times: 9am or 5pm. We will be meeting the AHS Library during both class options.

Topics we'll cover in New Leader Training:

  • getting your group started
  • creating a welcoming environment
  • creating a gospel-centered culture
  • facilitating the The Tangible Kingdom Primer (the Missional Community curriculum during the Vision Series this Fall)

Sign up for the New Leader Training here.

We look forward to seeing all new leaders this Sunday! 




Help Bring Disaster Relief

The Austin Stone is partnering with the Austin Disaster Relief Network (ADRN) to help build a network in greater Austin that will organize, mobilize and connect the body of Christ quickly in order to meet the emotional, spiritual and physical needs of those affected by disaster.

The City of Austin and Red Cross have asked the local church (through ADRN) to manage all 88 public shelters in the city, when disaster strikes. This is huge! But it means we must prepare NOW. They have asked us to be prepared by this hurricane season. (roughly Sept. 1st)

The Austin Stone has chosen to adopt Reagan High School as our shelter, but in order to do that, we need volunteers to serve in that shelter. Our aim is to raise up 8 shelter managers and 24 shelter volunteers to become trained and ready BEFORE disaster strikes. At Red Cross' request, a background check will be required.

Watch this video for more information!

Not if, but when disaster is upon us...will we be ready?




Are you getting trained for the mission of God?

Get Trained

 
Every semester the Austin Stone offers dozens of forums, seminars and classes to help you and your Missional Community get trained for the mission of God. Many of them have already filled up, so if you haven't signed up for one, now's the time before they fill up. Here's what Get Trained is all about:
 
The goal of The Austin Stone's Get Trained ministry is to stir the heart and renew the mind so that you might live a redemptive life. Each semester we offer classes, forums and retreats, each of which provide a different angle of insight into the character of God through the reading and consideration of His Word. Our hope is that God will renew your life through these opportunities, that you might be more like Jesus Christ and a greater source of life in your community.

Sign ups for spring classes are underway, view our spring course schedule. Most classes start on February 22; after the first meeting date, classes are closed to additional sign ups.
