Journey of Generosity
Facilitator Training
Share the message. Witness the Joy.
Generous Giving provides training to equip you to facilitate a Journey of Generosity retreat. Facilitators guide friends and peers through the Journey of Generosity experience. During training, you will learn the ethos of Generous Giving and principles of our experiences along with best practices for guiding the conversation. You will also practice facilitating sessions of the JOG.
It is our hope that you will catch a vision for sharing the message of biblical generosity in a winsome and meaningful way. Your training culminates in hosting your first JOG as a trained facilitator.
How Do I Become a Journey of Generosity Facilitator?
You may choose to be trained in one of three ways:
In-Person
In-person trainings are extended experiences led by a skilled Generous Giving trainer. Over the course of approximately six hours, you will engage in meaningful connection with your peers while exploring rich content, enjoying a shared lunch, and participating in live practice sessions. These gatherings are available when six or more interested volunteers can be trained at the same venue.
Over Zoom
Zoom trainings are held monthly and hosted live by a Generous Giving trainer. In four and a half hours, you will learn more about our ethos and practice facilitating parts of a Journey of Generosity with other volunteers from around the country. Please note this is a interactive training and your computer camera will need to be turned on throughout the experience.
Self-Paced Online Course
The JOG Facilitator Training Course is offered through our GG Connect portal. After completing the 90-minute course at your convenience, you will arrange an additional 30-minute Commission Call with a Generous Giving trainer. This is a great option for someone who already has their JOG scheduled and needs the convenience of a self-paced course.
Training FAQs
To sign up for a facilitator training, you must first participate in an online or in-person Journey of Generosity (JOG) retreat. Learn more about attending a JOG.
Testimonials
"Being a JOG facilitator is a ministry role that can be carried out by a “non-ministry” businessman like myself. When the Holy Spirit moves into the room and you see hearts starting to change, when the switch flips and people start to “get it,” it is like no other feeling in the world. I mean, how often do we get an opportunity to be arm in arm with the Holy Spirit? It is so rewarding to be involved in sharing a life-changing message."
