Abstract: The predominant method for ministry formation in the contemporary church consists of a course of study in a Bible college or seminary. While this has been and will continue to be an effective method for theological education, it does not work for everyone called to ministry. Some people for financial or practical reasons cannot follow this path. Others exploring a call to ministry may benefit from ministry experience but need some basic instruction to minister well as they seek to discern their vocation. Even those who are pursuing or have completed a formal theological education may benefit from developing ministry skills in a local church environment. This project was designed to explore one method to give ministry candidates basic instruction in one ministry skill (preaching) and then allow them to do ministry, get feedback, and improve. The project research includes a biblical theology of ministry formation focusing on ministry leaders preparing the next generation of leadership. The project is also informed by research into adult education theory, church-based models of ministry formation, and pedagogy of preaching. The project consisted of a preaching workshop in two Missouri churches with a six-hour classroom seminar and a preaching assignment for each participant which was critiqued by the instructor and peer-learners. Although the workshop content was specific to preaching, it could be adapted to develop many other ministry skills such as children's ministry or leading worship.
