Training & Development
Lead Like Jesus
Lead Like Jesus is designed to equip and encourage those exploring leadership and what that looks like at Manchester Vineyard.
Together we’ll look to Jesus as our model and unpack what it means to lead with humility, integrity, compassion and vision. We will explore what servant-hearted leadership looks like and how to carry the culture, values and mission of Manchester Vineyard.
Through four discussion-based sessions, we aim to create space to explore how your gifts and calling can serve the bigger picture of what God is doing and step more into all He has for you.

The Apprenticeship
Just as Jesus invited His first disciples to follow Him and be His apprentices that same invitation is extended to us today—to be with Him, grow more into His likeness, through the work of the Holy Spirit and do as He did in our everyday lives. The Apprenticeship at MV is an 11-month programme to go deeper in our apprenticeship to Jesus. We’ll look to put our formation and learning into practice, both in serving the church family here at MV and in our everyday lives.
Vineyard Leadership College
Vineyard Leadership College is a year-long intensive part-time programme for those experiencing a compelling call to leadership and seeking to invest in that call in an intentional and deliberate way. It is a church-based, multi-campus, multi-disciplinary training programme for Vineyard Churches in the UK and Ireland.
All the students of the Leadership College will follow a core curriculum, which is focussed around the Five Characteristics of a Pioneering Leader. The course involves a ministry elective which focuses your learning into one of a range of ministry-specific options.

Vineyard Theology
Vineyard Theology aims to promote head and heart understanding of the Bible, so that the way we do church is constantly being shaped by an informed, Spirit-led interpretation of God’s word.
Through Vineyard Theology you will be trained with high-quality theological education, integrated with spiritual transformation so that you are prepared for Kingdom work at any level in the church and in the world. If you are interested in developing your leadership through theological, Biblical and practical application, then Vineyard Theology is for you.
There are a number of modules available through an online training platform.

Church Planting Academy
If we are going to see people give themselves to church planting, giving up everything to plant, we owe it to them to send them as best we can. We are believing for something significant for Greater Manchester & the North West.
The Church Planting Academy includes individually tailored involvement in some of our other leadership development programmes, engagement with recommended reading material, and attendance at monthly Church Planting Development evenings and national Vineyard events.
