Faith Bible College — Short Course
Pastoral Leadership
A three-course journey developing dynamic, Spirit-led leaders — from the principles of leadership to the power of prayer and effective Bible study.
About This Programme
The Pastoral Leadership Short Course is a three-part, self-paced programme designed for pastors, church leaders and those called to shepherd and lead God’s people. Each course builds on the previous one, taking you from the dynamics of effective leadership, through the power and discipline of prayer, and finally into the principles of sound biblical interpretation through Hermeneutics.
Each course is assessed through essay-style questions graded personally by your professor, ensuring thorough engagement with the material before you progress to the next level.
