6 week ONLINE TRAINING: Become a certified Navigate facilitator |
|
At Navigate Ministries, our mission is to bring Christ-centered healing and emotional wellness to a broken world by equipping individuals, families, and leaders with practical tools that move people from coping to true connection. We exist to break the stigma around recovery and provide accessible, biblical resources for anyone navigating life’s challenges—because healing isn’t just for the addicted, it’s for all of us.
One of the key ways we live out this mission is by training Navigate Facilitators. These leaders are equipped—both online and in person—to host weekly Navigate Gatherings in their communities. Each gathering begins with teaching the Navigate curriculum in a large group setting, followed by small group breakout discussions. Facilitators lead others through a cycle of the curriculum that fosters healing, connection, and transformation.
The 6 week online training program offers the same comprehensive training sessions as our in-person, one-and-a-half-day Navigate certification conferences. Having certified hundreds of Navigate facilitators at our in-person events, we are excited to bring these sessions online. The training will be led via Zoom by Navigate author Randy Brown, with dedicated time in each session for questions and open discussions.
