S-T4T, Storying Training for Trainers, is a program to equip believers to share their faith effectively, disciple others, and train others to do the same. It is an intentional church-planting strategy founded on stories from God’s Word. It makes his Word available to all people in a way they can understand, respond to and reproduce.
T4T, Training for Trainers, is a proven CPM strategy founded on an obedience-based training paradigm of church-planting trainers training church-planting trainers. Developed by “John Chen” to facilitate church planting in a city in China, it has since been adapted and spread throughout the world. Tens of thousands of new churches have sprung from and continue to follow the model today.
S-T4T adds storying into the mix. T4T in its original form is primarily literate; S-T4T is designed to reach the vast majority of the world who are not. Imagine the effect of communicating the Gospel to the majority of the earth’s population in a way they can actually understand and respond to. Better yet, what a greater joy it will be to equip this majority of nonreaders, who often have felt overlooked or incapable of serving in ministry, to effectively plant churches!
