Church Partnering
Equipping the Next Generation of Pastors through Local Church Partnering
Sending a pastoral candidate to traditional seminaries has some significant challenges. These often include graduating with a sizable debt, a lack of practical ministry experience, a disconnect from the local church, and a family exhausted from carrying a full time load at school and an outside job.
At Faith Bible Seminary (FBS) we are pioneering a new model that maintains traditional, academic excellence while addressing these challenges. FBS solves these challenges by partnering with strong local churches.
Pastors, is your local church a candidate for partnering with FBS? Consider the following questions:
- Is my church evangelical in doctrine?
- Is my church interested in equipping men for pastoral ministry?
- Is my church interested in helping pioneer a different seminary model that addresses concerns in the traditional seminary model?
- Does my church currently have a man interested in training for ministry?
- Is my church willing to provide housing and a stipend to an intern for a three-year period?
- Does my church need some additional staff assistance for ministry?
- Would my church send an individual to a seminary that has a biblical hermeneutic resulting in a pre-millennial eschatological position?
If you can answer “yes” to these questions and are interested in pursuing a partnership with us, we'd love to explore a partnership.
