Distant Education

Relationally Oriented

One of the goals of our program is to help you make personal application to your own life. With authentic understanding and practice you will be able to care for others: (1) by modeling the Christ life; (2) by giving wise, Scriptural guidance.

Local Church Priority

Because we believe that every Christian is a discipler and the best place, outside of our homes, for sanctification to take place is the local church, our aim is to train you to do soul care and to help you restore Christian discipleship to the local church.

Gospel Centered

We believe the Gospel speaks to all of life, but many Christians are unaware how to connect the Gospel to their day-to-day lives. Our aim is to serve the body of Christ by helping you see and make those “Gospel connections.”

Informational Packet: Long Version

This is a well-thought out and well-developed program. We appeal to you to pursue the Certification Track in order to get the most out of your program. It is an intense program in itself, but like a computer, it will not be able to “exegete” you. However, if you choose the Certification Track, you will be unpacked, studied, and taught according to who you are rather than who someone else is. We do not do “cookie cutter” supervision. We do not provide “canned” answers. You are a real and distinct person, loved by the Father, saved by the Son, empowered by Spirit and guided by Their Word. Our goal is to come alongside what They are doing in your life to help you maximize Their good work in your life in real and practical ways.
