Program Overview
Preparing Tomorrow’s Christian Leaders
Overview
God has given each of us a gift. Scripture tells us, “Whatever you do, work at it with all your heart, as working for the Lord, not for human masters.”— Colossians 3:23 (NIV).
“Each of you should use whatever gift you have received to serve others…”— 1 Peter 4:10 (NIV).
At Thomas we know that each person’s gift is different. We believe it is our responsibility as Christians to help each student develop what God has called you to do. Whether your calling is to be a Sunday School teacher, a Pastor, a Missionary, Christian Educator or Counselor we have classes to help you fulfill these two verses and bring Glory to God.
