University

We place a high priority on your personal spiritual growth. University equips those who are passionate about their call to Christian service and prepares them for the work of God. Our unique training experience combines classroom learning, distance learning, and hands-on ministry experience. University is about shaping lives. Over two semesters, students will have the opportunity to learn and apply principles from God’s Word, gaining life skills and certification for their chosen course. At the completion of the training series we’ll have a formal graduation ceremony, celebrating the achievements of each student.

Courses

University meets on Wednesdays at 7pm at the Kentwood campus. Because we understand schedules may prohibit regular classroom participation, University will also be offered as an online option.

Course 1: Essential Christian Development

The pursuit of being a disciple of Jesus leads us to vast amounts of life transformation. Along the way, it’s important to become fluent in the doctrines that Jesus and His Apostles taught. This course aims to both reinforce fundamental knowledge of scripture, and teach truths that are vital to the Christian life.

Course 2: Christian Ministry License Training

Combining classroom learning with online courses, students will complete training in topics such as Apostolic Doctrine, Leadership, Personal Disciplines, Spiritual Growth, and more. This course is required for those seeking a ministry license issued by The Pentecostals.
