Philosophy of Ministry
The Institute for Disciple-Making at Brook Hills seeks to align itself with and support the Vision, Mission and Goal of this faith family.
- We seek to glorify God by loving Him with all of our heart, soul, and mind (Matt. 22:37). His character, will, and ways are infinitely worthy of our reverent and serious contemplation.
- We seek to make disciples by teaching the Word of God. Jesus commanded His followers to make disciples by baptizing and teaching (Matt. 28:19-20). Disciples are sanctified by the truth; God’s Word is the truth (Jn. 17:17).
-
We seek to make disciples of all nations by learning for the sake of others around the world (Matt. 28:19). Our efforts here are intended for world impact.
We are persuaded by God’s Word that the best context for the training of God’s people to fulfill God’s mission is the local church. This training includes the preparation of church leaders in numerous capacities—small group leadership, worship leadership, pastoral ministry, missionary service, and much more.
God in his grace has so gifted the church with evangelists, pastors, and teachers that His bride is able to “equip the saints for the work of ministry, for building up the body of Christ, until we all attain to the unity of the faith and of the knowledge of the Son of God, to mature manhood, to the measure of the stature of the fullness of Christ” (Eph. 4:11-13). Therefore, we seek to provide high quality biblical and theological training in the context of the local church.
Church Leadership Track
Recognizing that not all believers will desire the same level of training, we also seek to provide different training opportunities. To that end, we desire to offer two distinct levels of biblical and theological training.
The first level, called the Church Leadership Track, is a certificate program through which students may receive training in the following eight core classes and two ministry-specific electives:
| Church Leadership Track | |
|---|---|
| Course | Hours |
| Introduction to the Old Testament | 2 |
| Introduction to the New Testament | 2 |
| How to study the Bible | 2 |
| Christian Theology I | 2 |
| Christian Theology II | 2 |
| Teaching the Bible | 2 |
| The Ministry of Making Disciples | 2 |
| Leadership in the Local Church | 2 |
| Ministry Specific Electives | 4 |
| Total | 20 |
These non-accredited classes will be taught through The Church at Brook Hills in a rotating fashion. Attendance will be open to all who are interested in receiving further biblical and theological training. Class attendance and completion of class assignments is expected of all participants.
