Not only for teacher-types, but this conference is also for anyone aspiring to leadership or already serving in any kind of leadership role, for anyone interested in pastoral care, for anyone who values quality Biblical teaching.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The centerpiece of last year\u2019s event was a block of teaching led by the African Teachers\u2019 Group, which has set an inspiring example in recent years of developing a continental and highly collaborative teachers group. &nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/disciplestoday.org\/clone\/clone\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/AfricaTeacherDevelopment.jpg?ssl=1\" alt=\"\"\/><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Highlights of this year\u2019s Teaching Ministry Conference are:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>The emphasis on the themes of humility and collaboration. Gregg Marutzky of Antelope Valley, California will open the conference with one of the two keynote speeches, \u201cThe Heart of One Who Learns,\u201d and Rolan Monje of Manila, Philippines will close the conference on Sunday morning with the other, \u201cThe Heart of One Who Teaches.\u201d<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Saturday morning\u2019s program, devoted to Men and Women Teaching Together; Men Teaching Men, and Women Teaching Women, taught by the Tallinn Teaching Ministry group, Valdur Koha (Boston, USA) Carlos Santos (Madrid, Spain) and Tammy Fleming (London, UK)<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Saturday afternoon and evening\u2019s emphasis on Teaching and the Next Generation. Saturday night features a fun opportunity for the younger crowd to hang out together and fellowship against the beautiful backdrop of one of Europe\u2019s most impressive medieval walled cities.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The complete schedule of events and speakers along with everything needed to register can be found at the\u00a0<a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/tmc.krist.ee\/\" target=\"_blank\">Tallinn Teaching Ministry Conference Website<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The\u00a0<a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/www.krist.ee\/\" target=\"_blank\">Tallinn Church of Christ<\/a> (or Tallinna Kristlik Vabakogudus in the Estonian language) is a church of about 130 disciples in Eastern Europe whose members prayed, hoped, and planned for about two decades to have qualified Bible Teachers appointed in their congregation. Their determination came from a conviction that sound Biblical teaching plays a significant role in the health of any church. Their hopes were realized a few years ago when Mati Simm, Triin Leesman and Reto Zingg were recognized by the congregation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/disciplestoday.org\/clone\/clone\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/tallin_teaching_ministry.png?ssl=1\" alt=\"\"\/><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Another innovative idea that has been added to the program this year is a Writers\u2019 Lunch, intended to bring aspiring writers together with more experienced published authors. The aim is to help biblically sound teaching material become more widely available through all sorts of available media, and to help one another in this effort.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The event is both in-person and online, aiming to strengthen churches mostly on the large continent which includes the following five ICOC Regional Families of Churches: the UK\/Ireland\/Nordics; Western Europe; Eastern Europe; the Middle East congregations; and the Eurasian church family. Please be praying for these churches who not only face the usual challenges of language barriers and huge geographic distance between them, but now endure the trial of an active war between their nations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" decoding=\"async\"
