What is CultureBound
Chapters?

A global training network of CultureBound, united in a common purpose of spreading the gospel across cultures. These Chapters, located in different regions of the world, will train trainers of mission agencies, churches, and schools using CultureBound's training materials and appraoches.

Chapters Training

Who are the Chapters


Our Chapters are mission agencies, churches, and schools that we have trained in the past, in places like Tanzania, Panama, and Baja California. They do not have all the resources and funds to train their own missionaries and reach the unreached in their regions. We are now working alongside with their trainers to develop their own training based on CultureBound’s A.S.K. (attitudes, skills, knowledge) and relational perspectives.

Chapters will be trained in
 

  • Biblical and theological foundations

  • Mission practice for missionary life and work

  • Culture learning and cultural adaptation

  • Second Language Acquisition

  • Education across cultures and across generations

  • Practical workshop to form a training program

Why Chapters?

Why CultureBound is motivated to establish Chapters

For the past several years, CultureBound’s largest groups of trainees came from Majority World partners. Our training’s real impact is evident through our international partners, in addition to our efforts in mission sending and preparation from the US and other Western agencies.

CultureBound’s values (GRASP) build Chapters
 
God-centered
The Bible repeatedly and clearly describes God’s heart for the nations until every tribe, tongue, nation and people have heard.

Relational
We prioritize relationships over theoretical approaches in our training. This emphasis enables us to leverage existing strong connections with international colleagues to expand and equip new trainers.

Agile
We are driven by a flexible approach to training methods and organizational structures, enabling us to adapt as needed.
 
Sustainable
We can offer our valuable training by multiplying trainers who are not financially tied to CultureBound. This allows CultureBound to be much more sustainable and train people through a decentralized network, apart from any CultureBound funding.
 
Practical
While we value academic programs that also are powerful for training global gospel workers, we see ourselves as offering practical, non-formal training to people. The Chapters model is practical from that perspective, and it allows for deeper study in academic settings for those who are so inclined.
