We believe the Bible is one book, written by many authors over various time periods, solely inspired by one Spirit at all times – and is the only, yet the best and complete training manual for ministry.
We believe that doing ministry, debriefing ministry, and studying ministry – in association with chosen, life-giving, seasoned and Spirit-filled professionals – as an effective educational model.
We believe in a balanced, Bible-based, Christ-centered, mission-focused educational approach which includes a comprehensive curriculum that integrates studying through all 66 Bible books along with the standard, historical, theological, and practical disciplines, critical to equip the professional skills for 21st century ministry.
We believe in challenging and nurturing students, getting them into the Word of God, and helping them think biblically and enabling them to listen to the calling of the Holy Spirit, involving a unique combination of professional ministry training, cutting-edge tools and extraordinary experiences.
We believe in face-to-face interactions over time, among groups of individuals with a common set of core values and doctrines and ethical standards, and with diverse backgrounds and experiences, which can offer an exciting family-friendly, practical, rich and an unparalleled learning environment.
We believe that the journey of our education should:
-
Glorify the Lord
-
Be rooted in His Word
-
Nurture an intimate, faithful, trusting relationship with the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit
-
Cultivate a contextual and profounder understanding of God and creation, scripture and the world, heaven and earth, culture and history, time and eternity, and things seen and unseen
-
Equip students with the relevant experiences, knowledge, relationships, training, and tools for a lifetime of ministry leadership
-
Lead to a passionate commitment to love and serve the Lord and others with all that students are and have, in perpetuity
