In the Certificate in Theological Studies Program, we offer a range of courses dedicated to providing a strong biblical foundation and using that foundation to then equip you for ministry work, whether in the local church or through global missions. Our courses are taught live online, giving you the unique opportunity to work one-on-one with experienced, highly educated instructors who are dedicated to your spiritual growth.
For a bishop must be blameless, as a steward of God, not self-willed, not quick-tempered, not given to wine, not violent, not greedy for money, but hospitable, a lover of what is good, sober-minded, just, holy, self-controlled, holding fast the faithful word as he has been taught, that he may be able, by sound doctrine, both to exhort and convict those who contradict.
