Confident Christianity

The Confident Christianity Training Track is a ten-week interactive course, originally designed by the UK Christian Medical Fellowship and later adapted for ICMDA by Dr Peter Saunders.

The course aims to help you understand the non-Christian mindset and share your faith confidently and articulately in the way the Apostles did it – in understandable language, in a safe place and with the opportunity for discussion. It is a programme which once caught can be taught to others.

It covers such topics as:

Making a worldview diagnosis
What makes Christianity unique
The journey to faith
Exposing presuppositions
God’s role and ours in evangelism

The gospel message
Apostolic models of sharing it
Dealing with our fears
Answering difficult questions
The best reasons for belief

Starting with the truth they know
Avoiding circular arguments
Dealing with relativism
The elements of successful evangelism
The faith decision

We run each course for 8 to 12 people at a time for ICMDA regions and language groups in English, French, Spanish, Russian and Portuguese.

Each ten-week course is led by a small group of facilitators coached by the principal trainer Dr Peter Saunders.

The ten-week long training track will involve weekly interactive Zoom sessions. Prior to each session trainees will need to watch two short training videos, read a short article and undertake a short written assignment.

Trainees will need to set aside about two to three hours a week for this track (75-90 minutes virtual meeting, 30 minutes watching the two training videos, 15 minutes reading and 30 minutes writing assignment).
