Equipping the heart, head, and hands of pastors and leaders for the Church.
A Unique Seminary
The Master's Institute exists to equip the heart, head, and hands of Christian pastors and leaders to continue the ministry of Jesus empowered by the Holy Spirit. As a seminary of the Church, by the Church, and for the Church, we partner with congregations to prepare leaders for a lifetime of ministry wherever God calls them.
Be equipped for ministry, not just educated:
-
Biblical Teaching
MI instructs the head. Faculty are gifted and passionate adjunct professors who are recognized experts in their field. Students learn to know, live, and communicate the truth of Scripture.
-
Spiritual Formation
MI trains the heart. Formation flows from an intimate relationship of trust, obedience, and dependence upon the Lord Jesus Christ. Formation happens in Christian community.
-
Leadership Training
MI equips the hands. Students are equipped to disciple discipling leaders, receiving hands-on experience under the guidance of qualified and experienced ministers.
MI is a seminary like no other. I chose MI because I not only wanted a great theological and biblical education, but I desired to be more fully shaped into Christ’s likeness. I was continually challenged to grow in all these areas. In fact, I was so deeply impacted that I served on staff and later did my Doctor of Ministry dissertation on spiritual formation in seminary education. Choosing the right seminary matters!
