  Gift:  Prophecy / Exhortation / Discernment 

Date:  Thursdays 7 p.m. (EST) October 29 - November 19, 2026

Delivery Mode: Asynchronous

Cost: $150.00

Description: Equips preachers and marketplace ministers to deliver messages that confront, comfort, and compel — without manipulation or apology. Students learn to discern the prophetic call, read their congregation's cultural moment, and craft sermons that speak truth with courage and pastoral sensitivity. 

 Rationale: Prophecy refuses to call evil good and speaks truth to power; exhortation builds courage in the hearer; discernment distinguishes the Spirit's voice from cultural noise and personal agenda. 

Outcomes:

1. Discern the difference between prophetic preaching and other preaching forms (teaching, exhortation, evangelism, motivational speaking).
2. Analyze your congregation's cultural and spiritual moment through a biblical lens, identifying the specific word they need to hear.
3. Deliver a 10-minute prophetic sermon that speaks truth with courage, clarity, and pastoral sensitivity, evaluated by a rubric measuring faithfulness rather than eloquence.

Outcomes:

1. Articulate a biblical and theological understanding of evangelism as a spiritual gift, including its ethical boundaries and the role of prayer and discernment.
2. Identify and affirm the presence of the evangelistic gift within oneself and others, and develop culturally sensitive strategies for sharing the Gospel in marketplace contexts.
3. Create a Marketplace Evangelism Plan (end-of-course deliverable) that includes a personal gifting assessment, a 5-minute faith story, three context-specific strategies, and a discipleship follow-up plan.
