Practically
Focused

In each of our classes, though we aim to prepare each students’ head (mental), heart (emotional), and hands (physical) for ministry leadership, there is special emphasis and attention given to assignments and projects that equip you for specific, real-time ministry application.

Through our School of Ministry, one of our goals is that by the time a student completes our 2-year program, they would be fully equipped to join a church-planting team!
