Certificate of
Ministry
The Certificate of Ministry is primarily designed for those who desire
training in ministry, but do not meet the requirements for or do not
wish to pursue the master’s degree. This certificate offers students
a basic theological and practical ministry foundation that will be
helpful as they seek to serve in the Kingdom community. Students pursuing
this certificate may choose from 3 concentrations areas: Pastoral Leadership,
Christian Education, or Missions. The Pastoral Leadership track, in
accordance with the historical theological position held by the mainstream
of evangelical churches, is limited to male students preparing for
ordination. (Refer to “The Role of Women in the Church a Rationale
