| T&M® is suitable for long-term programmes of on-going, pastoral training and church multiplication. | P-T is suitable for new efforts that require training materials quickly, while awaiting a T&M translation. |
| T&M booklets have been widely tested and proven in many languages and peoples. | P-T has not been as widely adopted as T&M. |
| The 2001 and later version of T&M is much improved with many corrections from the original author. | Although written by the original T&M author, P-T has not been widely tested. |
|
T&M
Booklets are more thorough in their treatment of topics.
|
P-T
studies deal with a wider variety of topics, but more briefly that
T&M does.
|
| T&M booklets are geared to pastors of traditional congregations, who may have a preaching ministry. | Each study is written in two forms: (1) for novice leaders of new cells and congregations, and (2) for children's workers. |
| Each T&M translation has professionally-drawn art that is adapted to its culture region. | Pictures in P-T studies remain scarce and generic. These should be replaced by those who translate the studies. |
| The T&M menu is keyed to suggested training and mentoring methods, as well as to booklet titles. | The P-T studies present very little on training and mentoring methods. |
| Earlier versions of T&M were written primarily for nominally-Christian populations, whereas the 2001 and later versions are more widely adaptable. | P-T studies assume a non-Christian population and novice workers from a non-Christian background. |
| T&M materials focus on reproduction: (a) for pastors and missionaries training new leaders, and (b) for young congregations birthing new congregations. | Some P-T studies deal with reproduction, but most help novice "shepherds" plan their weekly activities and congregational worship times. |
| T&M is available under license from Project WorldReach. The modest license fee remains negotiable. | P-T is free to download, and it may be freely given. |
