Ministry Preparation Program

Ministry Preparation Program

Prerequisite: High School Diploma or Equivalent

The Ministry Preparation Program (MPP) is a comprehensive educational initiative designed to prepare individuals for effective leadership roles within local church ministry. The program emphasizes both practical skills development and spiritual growth, aiming to equip students with the necessary knowledge and tools to excel in their ministry endeavors.

The curriculum consists of 10 courses, each focusing on a specific aspect of ministry and biblical studies. We highly recommend that students purchase textbooks for each course, which serve to enrich their learning experience and contribute to building a valuable ministry resource library. Through engaging with these materials, students deepen their understanding of the subject matter and enhance their ability to apply biblical principles in practical ministry contexts.

Upon successful completion of all 10 courses, students receive a Certificate of Completion, signifying their achievement and readiness for ministry leadership roles. This certificate serves as a recognition of the student's dedication to their studies and their commitment to serving in the local church community. Click HERE for course descriptions.
