Annesbrook Leadership College provides training that embraces practical equipping and personal development partnered with Christian theology taught from the word of God. The very heart of ALC is to practically equip, raise and release leaders into all nations with a Christ centred foundation carrying an anointing that will sustain them in every area of their life and ministry. We are very privileged to be part of what God is doing in the lives of those whom God has brought to our Leadership College. One of the greatest miracles we see is lives permanently transformed to reflect the amazing character of God. We pray that as you read the contents of this prospectus you will also prayerfully consider joining us on this incredible journey for 2015. Blessings, Ps Brent & Viv Liebezeit Annesbrook Leadership College Principals Senior Pastors Annesbrook Church ALC message from our deans Annesbrook Leadership College plays a vital and a nationally important role in equipping and preparing people to lead. Our passion is for balanced and Biblically grounded leaders to be released from ALC into all levels of society and Church life, with the express purpose of bringing the integrity and ethics of Christian leadership to those places. We believe, and are empowered by, the understanding that values of truth, justice, compassion, kindness, wisdom, humility and integrity are vital leadership attributes and are found in the personal relational knowledge of Jesus. This belief is foundational to our preparation of our students for life. We see opportunity and we move in high expectation firmly believing that, if there are things wrong with our world, we must be part of the solution. Already ALC graduates have filtered into many aspects of leadership in both Church and community or into pathways of higher learning where they continue to learn and prepare for a life God has called them to. touch. Leadership happens in homes, schools, communities, Churches, the nation; in fact leadership occurs wherever people are present and something needs to be done. We are intentional about preparing leaders to be a blessing to others in the name of Jesus. It’s that simple. There is an academic side to the course and a practical side to the course. Both emphases work together to equip and At ALC we have a passion to equip people for leadership in a Christian context and to excite them to head into their futures with a powerful conviction of truth, courage, confidence and determination to positively affect every life and environment they To prepare minds to learn, seek, research, reason and achieve in the love and grace of God is our greatest privilege and highest priority. to train. Our greatest desire, however, is not to teach students what to think, but to teach them how to think. To prepare minds to learn, seek, research, reason and achieve in the love and grace of God is our greatest privilege and highest priority. We look forward to welcoming you into the experience and environment that is Annesbrook Leadership College. Robin & Cheryll Davis Deans of Annesbrook Leadership College ALC ALC 2015 | 6 ALC 2015 | 7 annesbrook leadership college staff & governance Professional Staff Assistance Because there are many topics of specialist interest within the curriculum, guest lecturers are called upon regularly. Among the most frequent guest lecturers are professional staff members from Annesbrook Church, with whom we share the campus. Many of these professionals are also Internship Placement Managers. The most regular of these are: Graham Heslop is the Associate Pastor at Annesbrook and a highly skilled communicator. Graham brings a wealth of experience and enthusiasm to the classroom. He is genuine and transparent and is able to marry the academic with the experiential in a completely real fashion. Besides the Principals and Deans, ALC has valued and skilful staff members who lecture and are also involved in special areas of service within the College. ALC Staff Simon Terrill It is a great privilege for me to be working for ALC. I would never have imagined what God had in store for me when I left a banking career to study theology. After graduating with a BTh degree from Bishopdale Theological College (BTC) in 2012, I joined the ALC staff in a part-time capacity. As the college has grown my position has developed into the full-time role I currently hold as Assistant Dean. This involves lecturing, overseeing curriculum development and delivery and other administrative responsibilities. I also work part-time as a musician and tutoring for BTC. Having grown up as a Pastor’s kid and being involved in various areas of church life, my passion is to see people grow into maturity and wisdom by providing Biblical inspiration for Christ-like transformation. Carla Pollock I joined the excellent ALC staff as Intern Manager upon graduating from the Diploma in Christian Ministry Internship course in 2012. My previous ‘hats’ include management roles in the financial, health and retail sectors. Currently I assume the privileged role of Mum to two beautiful girls and I am also a qualified Living Wisdom presenter. All of these skill sets are extremely valuable in my role as Intern Manager and I use them to support the students and their Placement Managers to achieve their goals. My desire is to see every person I work with embrace and realise as much of their God given potential as possible. I am honoured and privileged to continually see God moving with grace and power through the ALC internship platform. Governance board Currently ALC is in the process of applying for Private Training Establishment status. Documents for application have been prepared and are being assessed by NZQA. It is our desire to have the PTE status confirmed early in 2015. Part of the process will be the establishment of a new Governance Board. Membership on this Governance Board will be representative of the wider sSenior Leadership of Annesbrook Church, which will be recognised as the “Owners” of the PTE. As at this printing, the makeup of the Board membership has not been concluded. The Board will, however, be led by the College Principals and Annesbrook Senior Leaders Viv and Brent Liebezeit. ALC David King (B.Com NMIT, Certificate in Artistic Communication NZQA Level 5 City Lights Academy, Tauranga) is a highly qualified and motivated man with excellence the only option in what he does. ALC is fortunate to have David involved in the business management and the marketing aspects of the operation. He is a man of integrity, whose only goal is to see every operation under his oversight work to its absolute potential and with complete credibility. Hannah Flatt is a passionate teacher. Her work within Annesbrook includes a Pastoral role ensuring that people are connected, taught and cared for as part of the overall Annesbrook operation. Hannah holds an ALC Leadership Certificate and a Certificate in Management (NZIM). Shannon Johnston is an ALC graduate with distinction. Shannon is the Childrens’ Pastor at Annesbrook. Shannon is a man who is able to think outside the square and is a leader of integrity. He is passionate about seeing others engage their minds and develop the tools to search. Shannon is growing in reputation as a communicator with youth and children and is an eagerly sought after key note speaker. Josiah Burton is a passionate and energetic Pastor for Youth with a National reputation for energy, ability and communication skills. He directs the youth programme at Annesbrook and coordinates a youth mentoring initiative in schools and directs young adult work. Josiah is also a former ALC student and his lectures are animated and arise out of constant experience in his area of specialty. He is ably supported by his wife Kristen and his team of interns in dealing with a challenging group of teenagers often numbering over 200 on a weekly basis. Julie Clements is a highly experienced health professional having had a long career in Nursing (I.C.U.) and now as a long-serving professional counsellor contracted within the Annesbrook structure. Her credentials include the Diploma in Applied Counselling and Psychotherapeutic Studies (NMIT 2000). Julie’s lectures ooze empathy and understanding and are a real challenge to the students. Nicky Van de Geest is a registered State School Chaplain. In addition to those qualifications she has undertaken other qualifying papers in her growth as an effective communicator and empathetic counsellor particularly with children. Among her many tasks, Nicky heads the ‘Shine’ programme dedicated to meeting the needs of “at risk” school girls as young as intermediate age. Paul Burton is a tireless servant and supporter of ALC. Paul is also a lecturer, fulfilling lecture time every week of the Academic year.

NMIT personnel include Dale Bennett (Programme Area Leader for Health) and Chris Hubbard (Group Manager). There is at least one other NMIT person who attends the Advisory Group meetings in an administrative capacity. Those representing ALC on the Advisory Group are: • David King, General Manager Annesbrook, BCom NMIT 2012 (Current chairperson) • Robin Davis, ALC Dean • Paul Burton, ALC lecturer, Board member, Pastor • Kate Dugdale, former ALC student, B.Th., Post-grad diploma in Theology, part time lecturer BTC and ALC and PhD student, Otago university • Nicky Van de Geest, Registered State School Chaplain, Internship Placement Manager • Corrine Coombe, former ALC student, Administrator Dementia NZ, extensive administrative experience in the health and education sectors • Thomas Bate, Student Representative (Diploma) • Dallas Bowden, Student Representative (Certificate) guest lecturers ALC is privileged to be assisted by a number of other guest lecturers.

It was important to me that I knew what I believed and that God was at the centre of my life. At ALC I found the right environment to learn about my faith and focus on my relationship with God. Not only does the course present intriguing content within the subjects of Theology and History but lecturers are also focused on Spiritual Growth and transferable Leadership skills. The leadership skills discussed in class, and through discussions with supportive supervisors in the practical internship, are applicable to both life inside and outside of Church ministry. My internship areas were matched to my particular skill sets but also provided opportunities to extend and refine my abilities. In all honesty, I was not sure what this year would entail but ALC has been a fun, supportive and thought provoking environment that has helped me further connect with God; the best decision I could’ve made.

ALC ALC 2015 | 22 ALC 2015 | 23 It’s easy to think that what you do defines who you are. However, I’ve come to learn that it’s not the things you do that define you. It’s what you take in that adds to the foundation of who you are. Testimonial I think this quote would sum up the past year at ALC quite accurately: “The more you know, the more you know you don’t know”. I’m Thomas and this is my second year doing ALC. I’ve grown up in a Christian background. It was easy to think that I knew it all or at least enough to be a great Christian. ALC has turned that way of thinking COMPLETELY around. I like to look at it like this; the things we do in life are the building blocks people see. E.g. leading at a youth group or in a Church ministry would be a building block. Being in a relationship or married would be another block. In the worship team or playing music another block. A high social status - block. Have a great job/career – block etc. It’s easy to think that what you do defines who you are. However, I’ve come to learn that it’s not the things you do that define you. It’s what you take in that adds to the foundation of who you are. ALC for me has not been about the building blocks that people see but about building the foundation that holds them up. It’s the foundation that defines who you are and how you react when things fall apart. You can fake how you act but you can’t fake how you react. When a relationship gets messy or someone close dies or life is not going the way you wanted it to or even when you’re just having a bad day, it’s the foundation that will hold you up. Building a firm healthy Christian foundation in my life is possibly the greatest investment I have ever made. When I tell people I go to a bible college, the response I get is often, “oh cool so do you, like, want to be a priest then?” I always get a shocked look when I tell them, “no I want to be a cop”. I emphasise the ‘leadership’ part of this course because it’s exactly that; leadership training in a Christian setting with God morals. Everyone needs leadership training because everyone leads in some way or another. So it doesn’t matter what path I take in life, be it a police officer or skydive instructor, youth pastor or chef. Annesbrook Leadership College has been ‘foundation building’ for my entire life.
