Stream Instructors
Summary of Responsibilities
Reporting to a Dean or Director, the Instructor is responsible to apply their expertise to develop and deliver courses/programs so that students learn and reach their academic goals. The Instructor actively participates in departmental meetings and activities, in student recruitment for their courses/program, and in representing the heart of The Lord supporting of the general development of students.
Instructional Climate
In keeping with our climate of exhaltation, exhortation and encouragement, we ask our instructors and special guest to minister with a heart of love and follow these guidlines during presentation.
? Topics and items focussed upon are to be within the ministry mandates of the WFM Missions Base. This will insure a focus on the majors and a diminishing emphasis on minor issues of insignificant impact in the students lives.
? The purpose is to be excelling the students toward their destiny with our Lord Jesus Christ.
? By utilizing the Lamad method of instruction we move toward impartion as opposed to simple information aquistion.
? Under no circumstances will speakers disseminate negative or critical information toward churches, ministers or other ministries.
? All instructors will remain in a posture of accountability with disseminated information both with the students and within the leadership of the The FIELD Spiritual Equipping Center and the WFM Missions Base.
? We would ask that the opinions of the instructor be stated as opinion and the Word of the Lord shall speak and authenticate itself. In this manner, we allow the Holy Spirit to bring revelation as opposed to man's opinion.
