10TRAINING AT MSOBS OFFERS MANY ADVANTAGES
Tuition is free Excellent training A complete
curriculum A proven system of kingdom
growth Great relationships A huge family of
fellow-students
11We believe that the shortest path to world
evangelism is through the multiplication of able
preachers and teachers of the Word. The most
efficient way to do this is by providing quality
training in the student's own country, language,
and socio-economic environment.
12International Training Schools
?Are culturally relevant
?Are cost effective
?Utilize local resources and talent
?Encourage men and women to stay and work in
their own country
?Discourage dependence on foreign support
?Increase evangelism, church planting and the
making of disciples
