It is my hope that you will take a serious look with me at the key reasons every local church should have a dynamic, Spirit-led Bible college program for the training of God’s people, moving them into their individual gifting and calling.
There are many wonderful institutions of higher education that train men and women for service: the best laboratory for training engineers, computer scientists, mathematicians, lawyers, etc., may well be a centralized university with ample resources. In like manner, the best laboratory for training Christian leaders for service within Jesus’ Church is the local church in each city.
There are many excellent programs which will help establish such programs as ours, training leaders to fulfill the vision God has for them. We must follow the New Testament pattern of equipping people in local churches, and then releasing men and women of God into dynamic, life changing ministry.
