S.T.B.
|
The Bachelor of Sacred Theology (S.T.B.) program is primarily designed for experienced Clergy, who are serving the Lord in ministry, and who may or may not have formal theological training. Those who already have a college degree and desire some advanced training in ministry may be interested in this program. Applicants to this program are admitted by evaluation on a case by case basis. If you sense the call of God on your life and/or you desire formal Biblical training to equip yourself for ministry within the context of an institution that is deeply committed to the inerrancy and inspiration of the Holy Bible, the continuity and unity of the ancient Christian Church, and the power and fervor of the Holy Spirit, your quest for that has ended, but your journey of preparation has begun.
