Developing leaders in CMF
John Greenall talks about the CMF vision to develop leaders
At CMF we want to develop leaders who are passionate about disciple-making, helping medics and nurses to live and speak for Jesus Christ not only on Sundays but in the nitty-gritty of daily life.
The history of our professions is a ‘life-on-life’ apprentice model, where we learn ‘on the job’. It is in these places where we spend most of our time and we are formed and influenced. CMF therefore has a place, alongside and with the church, to develop disciples and leaders in medicine and nursing. We want to develop those who desire to develop and use their God-given passions and gifts to be a blessing to others.
We have several pathways designed to help you progress in the above areas, comprising various programmes. These include the Deep:ER Fellowship Programme, Associate Staffworker scheme, Biblical Leadership for Nurses course and a Writers’, Speakers’, Evangelism and Global Track.
Our new regional teams project is all about developing incredible teams, with discipleship and developing leaders at the core.
Why don’t you get in touch to find out how you can benefit, or to see how you might benefit others in being part of delivering these initiatives? These are exciting times at CMF as we seek to develop leaders to be disciples and to disciple others even to the end of the wards.
We focus on growing:
- Thought leaders who provide intellectual and theological leadership as we navigate the contemporary secular world
- Cross-cultural leaders with a passion to reach those in ‘gospel-poor’ settings
- Medico-political leaders who can be an influence for Christ in a secular context
- Movement leaders who provide strategic vision and oversight of medical and nursing work
- Specialty leaders who can provide leadership, mentoring and expertise
- Social justice leaders who can work with vulnerable patient groups in our changing healthcare landscape.
- Writers who can communicate issues at the forefront of medicine and faith
- Apologists and Evangelists who can clearly present and defend the gospel
