M.T.I. (Ministry Training Institute)

Purpose: MTI is a non-degree academic program equipping ministers and lay-leaders to live out their calling  to serve Jesus Christ and His church.

This program is perfectly designed for:
• Bi-vocational ministers who cannot currently afford a full-time degree program
• Sunday School teachers who want to teach the Bible with more depth and accuracy
• Lay people who desire to know more from God’s word

This if a non-degree program. Students receive a diploma after completing 8, 16 and 24 courses. The program continues to grow and offer additional courses.

We offer 2 classes in the spring semester, and 2 in the fall. Classes meet on Tuesday evenings from 6-8:45 pm at our Associational Office, and each course lasts for 8 weeks. Individuals may choose to attend in person or online through WebEx.  Tuition for each course is $50 if you register online. Those who register without using the online option are subject to a $10 processing fee per semester. There is also a textbook for each course.

2025 Spring Semester’s classes are:

The Book of Job (Jan 21-March 11)
Instructor:  Tom Drake, Interim pastor at Bethel Baptist

The Doctrine of Prayer (March 25 – May 13)
Instructor: Faron Golden, pastor of Grace Pointe
