Full text not available from this repository.Abstract
Bulgaria embraced Christianity under the rule of Tsar Boris I in AD 864. Since then, Bulgaria has survived both Muslim rule and the staunch atheism of Communist control. In November 1989, Bulgaria was liberated from the Communist control of the Soviet Union which brought unprecedented religious freedom for three years until the Communist party came back to power in 1993. Once again, a new persecution toward the Evangelicals in general, and Pentecostals in particular, by the State was revisited. In the midst of this climate, there is perceived to be a great deficiency in the development of Christian leaders for the discipling ministry of nationals in Bulgaria. In response to this, ORA Missions training Centers have been implementing indigenous discipleship training methods to equip lay leaders for planting contextualized churches among their own unreached peoples.
