Overview
|
FIRE School of Ministry is not only committed to the spiritual development of our
students, but we also endeavor to provide a strong academic environment in which
our students can be trained. We are committed to equipping our students by grounding
them in the Word of God and in sound theological teaching, as well as providing
hands-on opportunities for our students to be trained in various areas of ministry.
FIRE School of Ministry offers several different programs in which students may
enroll:
- For students who are interested in a one-year program only, we offer the Certificate
in Practical Ministry for those who successfully complete the one-year FIRE
Immersion School.
- FIRE awards an Associate in Practical Ministry degree to students who successfully
complete the first two years of our program, which includes the one-year FIRE Immersion
School followed by the first year of the Leadership Institute.
- FIRE awards a Bachelor in Practical Ministry degree to students who successfully
complete: 1) the one-year FIRE Immersion School, 2) the two-year Leadership Institute,
and 3) additional electives. It is possible to complete the program in three years.
- Students who are interested in the ministry of worship may pursue the Bachelor
in Practical Ministry – Worship Emphasis degree.
FIRE School of Ministry operates on a trimester schedule, with three twelve-week
trimesters per year. Core classes meet from 8:00 a.m. to 12:30 p.m., Tuesdays through
Fridays, and electives meet in the afternoons. In addition to the class sessions,
students are also required to participate in outside ministry. Specific times will
vary for each ministry. Additionally, the Academic Calendar lists specific trimester
dates.
