We hope that you feel really blessed by doing a Christian Ministry and Theology Course. Some students will learn lots about the Bible and about Christian Ministry. Others may just need some formal training in order to be allowed to function in a certain Church, Chaplaincy, or other missions or ministry situation.
Before doing a Christian Ministry and Theology Course, you should check if it is the right thing for you. Maybe all you need is a clear sense that God is calling you to do it. Or maybe you need to talk to your Church leaders and check if it is going to give you the qualification that you need to work in your particular Church or ministry environment. Whatever your reason for doing it, we will be there to support and help you all the way. Those who wrote and accredited the Christian Ministry and Theology courses had ideas about what would potentially be achieved by students who completed the courses.
