INSTRUCTOR FAQ

Who can become an instructor? Do I need any special skills or training?

"Teaching Walk Thru the Old and New Testaments is like giving someone the key to a treasure chest that they have always owned but never realized the blessings that exist inside."
- Rev. Randy Osborn

Our instructors are a very special group of people who are passionate about God's Word and passionate about igniting that passion in others. They are people who have sound biblical knowledge and are experienced teachers or speakers.

Are you:

  • passionate about God's Word?

  • a gifted and enthusiastic teacher?
  • willing to attend our instructor training program?

What will I teach? Who will I teach? Where will I teach?

We offer a variety of conferences and need instructors for all of them. Check out our instructor training schedule to find out what trainings we are offering this year.

As an instructor you will be trained to teach in churches and Christian schools. For example, you'll start locally with churches averaging less than 500 people in worship attendance or Christian schools with student bodies of less than 500. Once you have more experience, you can qualify to teach in larger crowds throughout the U.S.

After being trained, most of our instructors start with their own church and go from there. We recommend networking close to home with your local pastor, Christian leaders, and friends when you first begin teaching our conferences.

Don't worry—all of this will be covered at Instructor Training. We promise not to leave you to do this all on your own!

How are instructors trained?

Our instructors spend four and a half days with us at our headquarters in Atlanta, GA. This is a highly interactive and fun weekend spent with other people who are as excited about teaching God's Word as you are.

During training, you'll learn:

  • how to teach your event—you'll learn everything there is to know about your event—the ins, outs, and in betweens!
  • sales and promotion techniques—we'll train you on how to market your event and resource you with all the tools you'll need for success.
