MULTIPLY: BELIEVERS & CHURCHES is the training focus for this quadrennial period of the decade, from 2006-2009. These special training sessions will help clarify the core values of the Mission21 vision, which have been refined over the past several years. Those core values include: Pray for the Harvest • Give Geneously • Reach3 • Disciple Believers • Plant3 • Develop Leaders This symposium consists of seven distinct presentations on each of the six core values listed above, beginning with an overview presentation on Multiplying Believers & Churches. The presentation provides the scriptural foundations of each core value, including testimonials by various church leaders.
