about the program
This accelerated, 12-month, modular school will include the following components:
A North campus hosted at Living Stones Church in Crown Point, IN, and a South campus hosted at Generations Church in Pearl River, LA. The School of Ministry offices are housed on the Crown Point, IN campus.
Topical, self-paced, online video courses taught by NRP pastors as well as a comprehensive, independent study, Bible Survey course covering all 66 books of the Bible
Every six months, a Friday - Sunday, Live Teaching Weekend (LTW). Students will travel to one of our campuses for classes taught by NRP pastors and leaders, impartation to students, and fellowship with the faculty and fellow classmates.
A regional cohort where the student will enjoy getting to know other students at a deeper level as they progress through the various ministry, topic-related, monthly terms together. Cohorts will meet on a Saturday, in a central location, twice throughout the year.
Monthly accountability and personal engagement with a seasoned NRP mentor/pastor
Ten hours of practical ministry lab credits earned each month while serving in the student's local church under the oversight of their pastor
Participation in local community outreach or a mission trip
An Associate Degree in Christian Ministry will be awarded at the completion of the program.
Once accepted into the program, your spouse may attend at a half-price tuition rate.
We’re excited about this training tool the NRP is offering! If you have been looking for a way to be taught and mentored by seasoned, spiritual fathers and pastors who have given many years of their lives to ministry, don’t miss being part of this strategic opportunity!
