Pastoral Ministry<br />
Certificate<br />
2010-2011<br />
The Pastoral Ministry Certificate is designed for those in the local church who are responsible for pastoral duties in a staff or<br />
volunteer capacity. It is also suited to those mature persons who already have a college degree but desire formal training and<br />
certification in pastoral studies. Courses included in this certificate prepare students to preach, lead worship, provide pastoral<br />
care, and administer to the church with effectiveness. They would gain a primary grounding in theology, the life <strong>of</strong> Jesus, and<br />
biblical studies.<br />
Because <strong>of</strong> the nature <strong>of</strong> the ministry, enrollment in the Pastoral Ministry Certificate Program is limited to those at least 30 years<br />
<strong>of</strong> age with local church experience in evangelism, counseling, leading worship, and preaching. Admission to the program is by<br />
recommendation <strong>of</strong> the Chair <strong>of</strong> the Pastoral Department.<br />
The Pastoral Ministry Certificate will equip students to:<br />
1. Exegete the Scriptures for teaching and preaching.<br />
2. Prepare and preach sermons.<br />
3. Evangelize and train others for personal evangelism.<br />
4. Plan and lead worship.<br />
5. Use basic counseling skills in short-term counseling.<br />
