Training Leaders and Disciple-Makers for the Global Church
Theological Education
As the church grows exponentially in the majority world, so, too, grows the need for Christ-like leaders! Theological Education at One Mission Society exists to empower the development of Christ-like leaders for the global church and is committed to providing world-class leadership training and theological education to students in the majority world.
We do this primarily through strategic partnership with Bible colleges, seminaries, and ministry training institutes around the world. Through the mobilization of highly experienced theological education consultants, we encourage, support, and assist our partners to reach optimal effectiveness in fulfilling their institutional missions, using best practices in theological education. We also mobilize academically credentialed teaching fellows to serve at partner schools as faculty.
