About our School
We exist for students who want more knowledge of the Bible and those who want to be trained for certain ministry roles. Our classes are held at night and sometimes on weekends. The basic program is a 2-year diploma. Our standards are high and the quality of our classes and the assignments required reflect it. We are here for the serious student. If you are ready to learn more about the Bible, or to enter a preparation process, contact us today. Our classes are usually 2-3 credit hour classes which means each class meets once a week for 2 or 3 hours depending on the class.

Here are some of the classes we have been offering. Take a look:
THE 110 Multicultural Evangelism
This course is a valuable preparation to develop the mindset and ministry of those who would effectively reach people of other cultures and nations. Learn about the biblical basic for worldwide evangelism, its nature, scope and historic development, the current status, issues and trends of missions, and an overview of Foursquare Missions Intl. You'll learn about the fundamental nature of current international missions in today's world, the critical problems existing now and how to address them. Ultimately, you'll understand the application of the intercultural/international call to the local church and to the personal life. Taught by Lolita Frederick who has spent most of her life on the mission fields in Honduras, Panama and Argentina, this class is a prime opportunity to learn first-hand from an expert in missions! If you want to be a world-changing disciple maker, sign up.
THE 120 Early Church History
So what happened after the book of Acts? How did we formulate what "Christianity" believes? And what false beliefs tried to come into the church? We face those same challenges today. Investigate the development of the Christian church from the times of the Early Church to the later Middle Ages, with emphasis upon the major historical movements, problems, themes, trends and theological issues of that period. Learn what the Church Fathers said about the God-head, Christians and the nature of the church. Study the councils, creeds and major players as the church was established. Attention will be given to important documents written by these major players, as well as authoritative interpretive studies.
BIB301 Romans
A study of the major theological themes within Paul's letter to the church at Rome. Also included will be a look at the historical setting and major distictions in Paul's writings. This is an important study on the major doctrines of Christianity and how to apply them to our everyday life and ministry.
CHRM215 Spiritual Gifts and Ministries
This course will explore the aspects of how the Holy Spirit works in believers' lives and how each Christian can discern what are their spiriritual gifts, and how to function in them effectively in daily ministry. Taught by Steve Jester, D.Min., who has been involved for many years in the charismatic university setting helping students discover and operate effectively in the ways God intended. This will be a 12-week class starting September 22nd.
PM201 Music in Worship
Why do we worship? And why do we sing? How does music relate to worship settings? We will look at how to apply biblical principles to personal and corporate worship, and on planning leading worship. Topics will include: what worship is, the spiritual nature of worship and music, a theology of music as warfare-prayer-and preaching, music through the church year, how music fits in a church service, basic musicianship, an overview of music styles and arrangements and song selection, plus how to blend traditional and new music styles in a corporate setting. You gain a biblical basis for a life-style of worship, as well as training for leadership in worship in the church.
COURSE DESCRIPTIONS FOR 2002
Ministry Practicum
Allows students to get credit for ministry experience in a measurable way. Includes doing a book report and weekly meetings with a faculty facilitator to discuss the current challenges in ministry environments.
New Testament Survey
An overview of the themes and literature of the New Testament. Key people, places, events will be learned and students will look into how they relate to their life as a Christian.
Church History II
From the 1500's to the present. Students will learn the key people, places and events of Church History and how we can learn from the lessons of the past. Students will be challenged to explore their own life of faith as they discuss the beliefs that would deter them from true Christianity. Through the study of creeds and councils and divisions, students can see an overview of the similarities and differences in how different groups perceive the key elements of Christianty.
