About this course

Every believer is a minister of God, called to be a witness who can be equipped for ministry - in sharing the gospel, nurturing other believers in the faith, teaching the Word, bringing a Word of prophecy and carrying out a pioneering work for God’s Kingdom. While all believers are indeed ministers of God, we see that the Lord Jesus calls and gifts some specifically to be Apostles, Prophets, Evangelists, Pastors and Teachers. This is what is traditionally called as the five-fold ministry or the ministry gifts. In this course, we find out the characteristics and distinctives of each of these gifts. The ministry gift is a divine call of God with an anointing released to accompany each of the ministry gifts. This course while providing much needed clarity about ministry gifts also takes us deeper into the ministry of the Evangelist, the Pastor and the Teacher keenly observing the ministry of the Lord Jesus who is our example and role model for each of these gifts. This course is sure to ignite a fire and stir up the ministry gift resident within you.

This is an instructor-led course. Recordings of classroom lectures will be released weekly. Complete the objective type questions, quizzes and other assignments that are given as you progress through the course. It is recommended that you keep up with the lectures and assignments on a weekly basis. This course starts the week of Tuesday August 01, 2023 and will complete on or before Friday November 24, 2023 (23:59 UTC).
