Lifelong Learning Centre
Messianic Jewish Community Education
MJTI’s Lifelong Learning Centre for adult Messianic Jewish community education celebrates and fosters a love for learning from a Messianic Jewish perspective for all who wish to continue the pursuit of knowledge and study without a large commitment of time or finances or the desire to complete a degree.
The Centre seeks to inspire engagement with Scripture, Jewish thought and tradition, the Jewish People, and the Messianic Jewish Community through informal adult education.
Our goals are to:
- Provide adult education that adds value to the broader Messianic Jewish Community through practical courses, lectures, webinars, etc. that are easily accessible and personally meaningful and satisfactory;
- Impart the hows and whys of Jewish life renewed in Yeshua;
- Examine a wide range of Scripture and apply those principles to life;
- Integrate biblical knowledge and theology with practical Messianic Jewish ministry skills;
- Provide a knowledge of Messianic Jewish history, theology and practice;
- Cultivate a sense of personal Jewish identity or attachment to the Jewish People;
- Create lovers and allies of the Jewish people.
A variety of platforms will be used to fulfill these goals, such as short courses, series of courses, public lectures, webinars, online conferences, and discussion groups. All will be offered at a variety of levels, venues and times: a drip (daily 15 minute classes); a drizzle (two 30-minute weekly classes); a drop (weekly one-hour courses lasting four to six weeks, such as MJTI’s Panim-El-Panim classes); and a dive (Torah and text study or interactive classes requiring preparation).
