Are you interested in Education for Ministry (EfM)?
July 18, 2016
Are you interested in learning more about EfM? The Trinity Cathedral group will be taking new members starting this August. If you'd like to learn more, please contact Mercedes Clements for more information or if you have any questions - mercedes.clements@gmail.com.
Meetings will be on Wednesday evenings from 6-8:30pm at Trinity.
Education for Ministry (EfM) is a unique four-year distance learning certificate program in theological education based upon small-group study and practice. Since its founding in 1975, this international program has assisted more than 80,000 participants in discovering and nurturing their call to Christian service. EfM helps the faithful encounter the breadth and depth of the Christian tradition and bring it into conversation with their experiences of the world as they study, worship, and engage in theological reflection together.
For more information, please visit the EfM website.
This is a four year program administered by the School of Theology at Sewanee. In each year you take a deep dive into a particular area - Old Testament, New Testament, Christian History, and Personal Theology. We meet weekly on Wednesday evenings from August to May, and there is a significant bit of reading each week. There is also an annual cost of $350 that covers your reading materials.
Our meeting time is spent with some fellowship time, a brief discussion of the readings, and then a facilitated discussion called a theological reflection. Our focus as a group is going to be on theological reflection. The reading is important to build your knowledge of Christian tradition to feed these discussions, but it is not as overwhelming as a lot of people think. If you’re too busy to read on some weeks, you’ll still want to attend for the discussions.
