I s a Project - CD-ROM

A multimedia CD filled with more than a thousand resources for those involved in M U S L I M ministries.  It is configured as an Intranet resource which follows the Internet browser format. It can be used off-line for accessing all the resources on the CD. In addition, it has been developed to interconnect with the Internet. Once on-line, simply insert the CD into your CD-ROM player, go to FILE and open the CD from your CD-ROM drive, click default and away you go.

You DO NOT have to have Internet service to use the CD nor do you have to be on-line.     However, the active links in the CD will connect you to more than a thousand other Internet
sites which are included on the CD.

All programs necessary to use the CD are included on the CD itself. The Internet Explorer® and MultiMedia® (registered trademarks of Microsoft Inc.) allow you to hear and see the audio and video tapes on the CD. Adobe Reader® (registered trademarks of Adobe) is included to view certain documents. All these programs are included by permission or license agreements we have with the manufacturers.

This project is designed to do two things. First, to connect the educational community in Christian institutions to the REAL-TIME research needs of missionaries and mission institutions worldwide.

Second, to encourage the research and submission of high quality offerings that might not otherwise be published in institutional or commercial venues.

Passing the Torch project

The purpose of this project is to link together new missionaries and missionary candidates with retiring missionaries and others with significant experiences in mission for the purpose of pre-field preparation, development of mentors and prayer intercessors. 

The goal are:
1)    to rapidly equip missionaries for their fields of service with more
        relevant and specific information concerning their focus group
2)    to establish a method by which transfer of relationships and trust 
       from one missionary generation to another can be actualized
3)    to garner the expertise of experienced missionaries as they are
        returning from their fields of service
4)    to redeem the time God has given us by PASSING the TORCH of 
        commitment that will empower one generation and enlighten and equip
        another. 

E-mail will be the primary means of linking together these missionaries. However, conventional methods of communication will also be offered.

The primary focus would be, but not exclusively to,  those on an entry level of learning or experience.

Missions by Modem Server

We at MBMINTL are committed to cutting two years of the first 4 years of the training and learning cycle of those preparing to serve Christ among M U S L I M S. In order to do this, we are preparing ways and means to equip those preparing for this kind of ministry.

Some of the information will be placed onto CDs and others will be housed on a computer server for real-time access via password access.

These offerings will include, reference materials which can be used in an academic context, self-directed study programs on CD, Basic internship syllabus with reference materials on the CD, audio and video tapes for training purposes, current field information, and other resources.
