The impact of a theological institution is measured by...

Historically education has been driven from behind – the history, and above – the educational institution. Traditions and adherence requirements have led to inflexible models of school leadership that are focused on administration and rife with educational politics. In contrast, today's theological landscape needs institutions with a grassroots-driven educational system, looking to a future that is biblically and theologically grounded. This...

The decision for ministerial training institutions to become broader educational institutions that offer courses outside the traditional areas of theology is certainly not unique to a specific geographical context. While there are many examples of notable institutions making this transition in North America and Europe, very little reelection has been carried out in the global south. In this book, Dr. Semeon Mulatu looks to institutions in Kenya, Ethiopia,...

It is a bold thing to ask, "Is what we are doing working?" We know the danger of evaluating things as the world does - with measurements and financial strength. We rightly rejoice at the stories of faithful ministry with little fruit and know that it says something profound about our God and his true servants. And yet . . . Good leadership has always asked whether the wineskins are adequate for the new wine. Traditional Western theology has brought...

God clearly intends that lives of Christians and the life of the church should differ from those of the unredeemed. The Christian and the church should be "salt and light." Preparing spiritual leaders who have the grace, credibility, and wisdom to effect such change demands more than transmission of knowledge. Equipping for transformative ministry requires a divinely empowered and educationally intentional experience that leads to transformation in...
