Residency

Why Residency

The heart of residency is to equip next-generation leaders to go out and make disciples in neighborhoods and in the nations. Through this two-year, post-bachelor's degree experience, you will be trained and prepared for work in ministry.

“Therefore go and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit.” (Matthew 28v19)
