Discern God’s ways in your life and prepare to disciple others
The Christian Formation program is an excellent choice for those considering any profession that works closely with people. It provides a firm foundation for those interested in entering relational ministry or considering a career in counselling.
- Cultivate a listening life through meditation on the Word and works of God.
- Learn from the wisdom of the church through the centuries.
- Learn to integrate Christian theological psychology with empirical research to appraise contemporary therapies.
- Develop an understanding of the theoretical and practical foundations of counselling and develop practical skills in becoming a “skilled helper.”
This program is available for a 2-year diploma and a 4-year bachelor’s.
Off-Campus Experience – In the fall of your second year, you can spend seven weeks learning about God through the beauty of His handiwork in the Canadian Rock Mountains at Frontier Lodge. This experience will shape your soul, mind and body.
Diploma in Christian Formation
The two-year diploma program offers a foundation for basic, discerning spiritual care for others. At the same time, it deepens your own personal transformation into the likeness of Jesus Christ.
Prairie’s Christian Formation Diploma will equip you to:
- Slow down: Cultivate a transforming friendship with God.
- Go deep: Effectively study and interpret Scripture; Begin to integrate theology and human behaviour; Discern how God is redeeming your past and re-shaping you now.
- Give life: Become a soul friend to disciple others in their journey.
Bachelor of Arts in Ministry
In our four-year program, students will graduate from the degree program with “level 1” certification in spiritual direction from Urban Sanctuary which includes the opportunity to learn from and work with experienced evangelical Christian counsellors and spiritual directors. Complete a 9–credit internship.
The degree program carves out a pathway for credentialing and graduate level training in a range of people-helping careers, while building on the spiritual foundations of the diploma program.
