School of Ministry
Welcome to the School of Ministry at Open Christian University, where we stand firm in our commitment to prepare ministers for the critical task of shepherding God's people amidst the challenges of the present age. As we stand on the brink of the prophesied end-time harvest and anticipate the imminent return of our Lord Jesus Christ, the need for faithful and equipped ministers has never been more pressing.
In a world marked by rapid scientific and technological advancements, as well as the proliferation of new age philosophies and ideologies, the Church faces unprecedented challenges. The allure of worldly wisdom and the subtle influence of heretical teachings threaten to lead many astray from the truth of God's Word.
Scripture warns us in 2 Timothy 4:3-4: "For the time will come when people will not put up with sound doctrine. Instead, to suit their own desires, they will gather around them a great number of teachers to say what their itching ears want to hear. They will turn their ears away from the truth and turn aside to myths."
In response to these challenges, the School of Ministry at Open Christian University is dedicated to equipping ministers with a firm foundation in biblical truth, unwavering faithfulness to the Gospel, and the discernment to combat falsehood with wisdom and love.
Taught Degree Programs
The School of Ministry at Open Christian University offers a range of taught programs leading to undergraduate, graduate, and postgraduate degrees in various areas of the fivefold ministry. Our study pathways are carefully designed to equip ministers with the knowledge, skills, and spiritual discernment needed to effectively serve the Church and advance the Kingdom of God.
Our programs are designed to prepare ministers who are not only deeply rooted in Scripture but also adept at engaging with contemporary issues and cultural trends through the lens of conservative Christian theology. Whether you are called to preach the Word, provide pastoral care, or engage in evangelism and discipleship, our curriculum will empower you to stand firm in the faith and boldly proclaim the truth in love.
As we eagerly await the blessed hope of the Church Rapture, let us be faithful stewards of the Gospel, diligently laboring in the vineyard of the Lord until He comes. As it is written in 1 Corinthians 15:58, "Therefore, my dear brothers and sisters, stand firm. Let nothing move you. Always give yourselves fully to the work of the Lord, because you know that your labor in the Lord is not in vain."
