Global Intent’s and Tent’s GO Equipped courses have had record numbers of participants every year the past years. 2019 will be no exception. Close to 400 people from a variety of nations are expected to take the course this year.
The course season starts next week with a GO Equipped course in Ganta, Liberia. Then follow courses in Nigeria, Costa Rica, Niger, Ecuador and Brazil.
It is amazing to see the interest for our GO Equipped-courses. Our capacity is limited by the number of teachers we have available – not by the number of people who want to take the course. To meet demands, it feels like we could run courses every week throughout the year, says Tent’s international director, Steinar Opheim.
New perspectives
Several of the participants underline how the GO Equipped training provides new perspectives to their lives as Christians. One of them is Daniel McGee who took the course in Monrovia, Liberia in February this year.
Throughout my whole life I have focused on discipleship and how we can follow Jesus. The GO Equipped course still gave me totally new perspectives on how we can serve God through our work. I am now aged 60 and I finally feel that I am getting a full understanding of this, smiles McGee, who is the chairman of the board of directors if Tent Liberia.
