The Center for Church-Based Training defines CBT as:
Developing all believers to maturity and many to leadership in the local church, under the authority of local church leadership, through an apprenticeship on-the-job approach, with other churches, for Christ's mission of multiplying churches worldwide to God's glory.
The emphasis of church-based training is on the local church. This definition may seem a bit long, but it marks key differences between CBT and other forms of training leaders.
What do you like about this definition? Is this really a biblical expectation of the local church? How does it shape the life of your church?
