This program is a non-accredited Certificate, which is offered as an affordable option for those who have the desire to study the Bible. It is held and taught in your local church and has been designed to enable you as a local church pastors to teach the word of God in a time efficient and cost effective manner. It creates a great opportunity for church members who are unable to study during the day to learn more about God’s word, Christian character, the gospels, leadership principles, and much more.
