| The
Basic Program (lay and pre-ministerial) is open to all
who desire to deepen their study of Scripture and to
prepare to better serve the LORD, their church and their
community. Students will receive a Certificate upon
completion of the required 30 credits.
The
program utilizes the Compendium of Pastoral Theology
developed in Latin America by Extension to all Nations
(SEAN). This Compendium is divided into six workbooks
all focused on the life of Christ and the Gospel of
Matthew. A workbook is completed each trimester. The
completion of each earns the student four credit units.
In order to complete the 30 credit unit requirements,
the student must take six additional mini-courses, one
unit each.
Upon
completion of the Basic Program each student will have
been equipped to:
•
Develop and care for his/her spiritual life
• Discern and develop his/her own spiritual gifts.
• Use the Gospels with greater adeptness for evangelism
and discipleship.
• Lead participatory Bible studies and worship.
• To be a better student with improved study skills
and personal performance.
The
Ministerial Program is composed of 90 credit units,
30 upon completion of the Basic Program and 60 required
and elective courses from the Ministerial Program.
The
supervised one year practicum is required for completion.
Those interested in this program must be recommended
by their local church and must be interviewed by the
President or Academic Dean. Each student, upon completion
of the program, will receive a Ministerial Diploma which
is accepted by some churches for the process of meeting
ordination requirements.
