PHILOSOPHY OF LEADERSHIP DEVELOPMENT

A Unique Seminary

At The Master’s Institute, our approach to seminary centers on equipping the head, heart, and hands of men and women who are called to continue the ministry of Jesus in the power of the Holy Spirit. We believe that effective ministry flows from whole-person transformation into the likeness of Christ. By integrating spiritual formation with academics and practical ministry training, our students are prepared for life-long, sustaining ministry.

Spiritual and Character Formation: BE

We cooperate in Holy Spirit-led transformation by creating a nurturing environment for whole-person growth. 

  • Small Group Community: Be part of an intentional community that will encourage you and challenge you in your learning and growing

  • Personal Growth Plan: Purposefully explore your unique design and identify key opportunities for growth to optimize your call in God’s Kingdom

  • Mentorship: Receive personalized support from a mentor who will walk alongside you on your journey towards wholeness in Christ

Biblical Teaching: THINK

Students learn to know, experience, live, and communicate the truth of Scripture with zeal and humility. 

  • Masters-level Courses: Deeply engage with Scripture and learn to love, be changed by, and live out the word of God in ministry and everyday life

  • Gifted Faculty: Learn from instructors who are both experts in their fields and experienced ministers

  • A Reformation Perspective: We teach from the perspective of the Reformers: Word alone, faith alone, and grace alone

Leadership Training: DO

Students receive hands-on ministry training under the guidance of qualified and experienced ministers.

  • Internship: Gain three years of guided ministry training in a church, para-church organization, non-profit, or other ministry setting of your choice

  • Coaching: Refine your leadership skills with personalized coaching from a leader in your own ministry context

We believe the world is desperate for whole, healthy, and competent leaders. We invite you to prayerfully consider joining us in a transformative journey where your faith, knowledge, and skills are refined and strengthened to make a lasting impact in the Kingdom for the glory of God and the good of his people.
