《把握時機》宣教生命課程 乃是由菲律賓Living Spring International編輯出版，原名Condensed World Missions Course，因它是濃縮自兩套著名的宣教課程：Dr. Jonathan Lewis所著的World Mission及Dr. Ralph Winter所編的Perspectives on the World Christian Movement。《把握時機》屬正式的Perspectives Family家族成員，至今已在超過80個國家，以35個不同的語言進行，近年來開始有中文版的課程。《把握時機》基礎課程乃是在經驗豐富的統籌導師帶領之下，透過學習方式包括聚焦禱告、課文修讀、靈修專題、成長小組討論、錄像教學及特別設計的跨文化活動，從四個層面認識宣教(聖經、歷史、策略、文化)，達到教育、啟發及挑戰基督徒將宣教與生命整合，從根本中去重整你的人生方向，積極參與神的宣教計畫。完成此課程者將受頒予國際證書。
Kairos不是另一個提供宣教資料和認識的課程，而是一個改變生命的旅程！一個震撼生命，翻轉世界觀及重整基督徒事奉觀的旅程！並把所學到的整合到日常生活中，學習調整生活，重新編排優先次序及調整活動焦點。此課程最獨特的地方是以多种方式導修互动代替单一授課。學習方式包括聚焦禱告、課文修讀、靈修專題、成長小組討論、錄像教學及特別設計的跨文化活 動，從聖經、歷史、策略、文化四個層面認識宣教，啓發及挑戰每个基督徒將宣教與生命整合，從根本上重整你的人生方向，積極參與神的宣教計畫。
Perspectives
Perspectives is a fifteen-lesson education course exploring different aspects of God’s global purpose in a multi-faceted learning experience. The course examines the story of God fulfilling His promises from four vantage points or “perspectives” — Biblical, Historical, Cultural, and Strategic. The Biblical and Historical sections establish the foundation of our confidence in the historic fact of God’s persistent work to make His name known to the nations from the dawn of history until today. The Cultural and Strategic sections highlight that we are in the midst of a costly but very “do-able” task. These sections confirm the Biblical and Historical hope we have with the invitation to co-labor with God in His mission.
