The Great Commission Worship & Arts Center, with the aid of many other related/networking ministries and individuals that share similar vision, is currently in the process of developing this online distance learning course (which will begin as a self-directed study) for those interested in Music, the Arts/Media and Missions training.

This course is for candidates, missionaries, missions leaders, Christian music/arts/media and missions educators, worship leaders, etc. - any Christian interested in seeing the arts and artists involved in seeing the advancement of the Kingdom of God - both locally in the marketplace in their own regions or internationally. All are a vital part of the Great Commission!

At present there is not yet a team to help facilitate the learning process by personal email mentoring, etc. so those interested can use what they want and work at their own pace. This self-directed study is currently free...perhaps always...since there is a growing cry internationally for this type of material.

The course is being developed, so what is available below is in its initial rough outline form, but hopefully sometime in the year 2005 it will be ready to go! although the resources on it now are also currently accessible as a self-directed study.

We would like to request that those interested in helping to develop this study/course by partnering together through contributing ideas or resources/articles, etc., contact us so we can discuss this further: GCWAC@DiscipleTheNations.org

This course is also to work along with a number of other resources currently being developed in conjunction with a number of different ministries.

Once the material is all together, we will reformat this information into a much more easily-accessible format, so thank you for bearing with us in the meantime if you are making use of this page.

We trust that, with our combined efforts, Great Commission-minded/hearted musicians and artists and others in the Church will be able to become more effectively equipped to become fully whom God has created and called them to be in this vital point in history in the Great Commission locally and overseas!
