Locally Hosted - Volunteer Driven

Global Grass-Roots Movement
The spread of Perspectives is the story of pockets of the body of Christ catching the vision of to do its part to make God’s purpose known. Since the first class in 1974, thousands of volunteers have propelled the class from city to city and on to the corners of the globe. It is truly a grass-roots movement of believers wanting to see others catch the vision of God’s glory, His heart for the nations and the advancement of His Kingdom.

Locally Hosted
Perspectives is not a church program. It is a course administered nationally, ran by local volunteers, and hosted in local churches. They are community wide courses with students coming from many churches.

Local Volunteer Team
Perspectives alumni from the community band together to run the Perspectives course. They volunteer because God has changed their life, and they want others to experience the course and get threaded into God’s story.

Thousands of Instructors
The most unique aspect of the course is the diversity and quality of our instructors. Generally, every class schedules a lineup of Biblical scholars, missionaries, pastors, professors, and mobilizers who bring a wealth of experience and passion to each lesson. Some are flown in and some are local. How to become an instructor
