Strengthening Theological Education

About This Project

God is calling out hundreds of believers to pastoral and church planting ministry, and they long to answer the call but for the cost of theological education. Yet, theological education is critical to raise up future generations of pastors, theologians, church planters and missionaries and to combat aberrant theologies that weaken many churches at the core, significantly limiting their potential to fulfill their role in God’s global mission.

Your gift to Strengthening Theological Education will develop quality curriculum and fund scholarships for students, effectively training the next generation of church leaders in all parts of the globe. Baptist seminaries and training centers worldwide have embraced their mission to develop pastors, church planters and missionaries who are prepared to take up their role in Great Commission work and teach others the truths of God’s Word. Your partnership is vital. Your gift today will build tomorrow’s church in all corners of the world.
