Frequently Asked Questions  

About the School

 

Q: What is the purpose of this school?
A: Our mission is to equip believers to live out their God-given calling—whether in the church, marketplace, or both—through strong biblical foundations, and practical and Spirit-led self-leadership development.

Q: Who is this school for?
A: Anyone who feels called to serve God in ministry of various types (the marketplace where we live day to day), wants to deepen their understanding of Scripture, or desires to be equipped for leadership and discipleship.

Q: Do I have to be called to full-time ministry to attend?
A: Not at all! We are here for students who are business owners, professionals, community leaders, Christian artists, worship leaders, or church members who want to integrate their faith into every area of life.


Programs Offered

 

Q: What kinds of programs do you offer?
A: We currently offer one teaching track/program. Here is what is included...

  1. Marketplace Ministry – Training & Coaching/Counseling to live and lead biblically in any sphere of influence.

  2. Biblical Studies – In-depth study of God’s Word with practical application.

  3. Bi-Monthly Coaching/Counseling - Coaching/Counseling centered around your current life and walk with Christ.

Q: Is ordination guaranteed after completing the program?
A: Ordination is a prayerful, Spirit-led recognition of God’s call, not just a certificate. Students who complete the program and maintain the moral agreement will participate in the ordination.


Enrollment & Requirements

 

Q: Do I need prior ministry or Bible school experience to enroll?
A: No prior formal training is required. We welcome beginners and those continuing their education alike.

Q: Is there an application process?
A: Yes. Students complete an application as they sign up. All are welcome who are serious about this journey. *There is no need to apply if you cannot dedicate time and energy to participate in this program.

Q: What are the academic requirements?
A: Reading. You will need to know how to read because we will be reading the Bible. That is all!


Format & Schedule

 

Q: How is the school structured?
A: Our program includes a New Testament Reading plan (taking notes are required, as well as posting questions and thoughts in the "Community app"), once-a-week 2-hour classes, bi-monthly counseling/coaching sessions, and 3 monthly 4-hour workshops. In month 2, you will begin filling out questionnaires weekly detailing your testimony. This program is hosted on "Kajabi Communities," where the classes will be held online, and weekly community engagement is required. There is the opportunity to graduate with special distinctions, signified by colored ropes worn during graduation. 

Q: Can I study at my own pace?
A: This program is done as a community, and the reading plan should be completed on time to participate in graduation. Only one workshop may be missed (due to unforeseen life circumstances). If you have to miss more workshops, you have to take the workshops during the next class/cohort, and graduate with that class/cohort, and not your current class. The self-leadership workshops are required for graduation.

Q: How long does it take to complete the program?
A: It takes 3 months, then there is a graduation/ordination date (in-person/Chicago, IL)


Costs & Scholarships

 

Q: What is the tuition cost?
A: Currently, the tuition is $997 (this is subject to change).

Q: Do you offer payment plans?
A: Yes. Send an email to [email protected] to receive the payment plan options.

Q: Are scholarships available?
A: We offer partial and occasional full scholarships based on need.


After Graduation

 

Q: Will I be licensed or ordained upon graduation?
A: Graduates who complete the program and maintain the moral agreement may be ordained during graduation. Graduates will also be connected with an organization to receive formal ordination materials.

Q: Can I transfer my credits to another Bible college or seminary?
A: No. This is a specialized Bible school that does not match the format of traditional Bible College or Seminary.

Q: How can I use my training?
A: Graduates can serve as marketplace leaders, nonprofit founders, community and social media influencers, as well as traditional ministry such as pastors, evangelists, and missionaries.

You may already serve in these capacities, but after graduation, you will have the Biblical foundation to serve well in your respective fields.


Spiritual Commitment

 

Q: Is this school affiliated with a specific denomination?
A: We are a Spirit-filled, Bible-based training school open to students from all Christian backgrounds. For clarity, when we say "Christian," we are referencing followers and disciples of Jesus the Christ. Being a church attender is not the same as being a disciple or follower of Christ. The latter are those who have Jesus as LORD of their life.

Q: What if I don’t feel “qualified” for ministry?
A: God often calls the willing, not just the “qualified.” Our goal is to help you grow spiritually, biblically, and practically so you can confidently step into your calling.
