Welcome to Porterbrook Seminary
Porterbrook Seminary was designed with practitioners in mind. The program provides affordable, non-residential training for church leadership with a strong missional dimension, enabling students to study in the context of their ministries. Students may choose from three courses of study:
Diploma in Church Leadership or Church Planting
These three-year programs provide a thorough preparation for church leadership and church planting, allowing you to study in the context of ministry. You will receive a good foundation in biblical studies, doctrine and missional theology as well as developing skills in theological reflection, pastoral practice, Bible teaching and missional leadership.
Lifelong Learning
The lifelong learning programme is designed for those who have completed training, but wish to continue their theological development in the context of ministry. This programme involves three facilitated seminar days each year and the option of attending Porterbrook Seminary residentials or days within our residentials.
