• invites participants to explore the Christian faith in the 21st century global village.

What is Citizens of Two Kingdoms?

Citizens of Two Kingdoms is the first Module of The Awareness Course. It is an adult education programme that equips people for life in a diverse world, examining issues that affect every one of us, such as fundamentalism, the impact of globalization around the world, and secularism. Participants learn to live without fear and without feeling that they have to compromise their own beliefs. The course is Christian, celebrating our common ground with Judaism and Islam and respecting our differences.

Course facts:

• Puts Christianity in the context of the 21st century
• Excellent for outreach
• Taught from a Christian viewpoint
• Islamic and Jewish perspectives aid self-understanding and broaden horizons
• Suitable for everyone – no jargon, no assumed knowledge
• Versatile – easy to teach and simple to contextualise
• Written from Western and Middle Eastern viewpoints, revealing the original culture of the New Testament

Course Leaders:

Each Awareness group is led by one or more Course Leaders. Course Leaders add greatly to the 'value' of a course by:

• motivating participants in discussions and activities;
• offering feedback and support to those taking part; and
• providing some contextualization by applying the essence of the video teaching to their own group's situation and experiences.

The Awareness Course's teaching method, designed and refined over five years, is based on the use of professionally-produced teaching videos, meaning that the Course Leader’s role is that of facilitator and motivator rather than lecturer.

Who can be a Course Leader?

Put simply, almost anyone can be a Course Leader!

• You don't have to be a theologian to lead the Awareness Course.
• You don't have to be a priest.
• If you have taught or presented a little before, then you should easily be able to lead the Awareness Course!

The Awareness Course always involves 'real world' issues such as diversity, globalization, fundamentalism and secularism - issues which every one of us has encountered - and much of what will happen in a session will be fueled by your participants' own experiences and insight. As for the teaching itself, Course Leaders can rely on the Awareness Foundation's own teaching team to deliver this through our DVD. Of course, we are always happy if you'd rather do some of the main teaching yourself!
