Pastors will be able to search for courses that will strengthen their professional Core Competencies, and continue to unleash and develop professional talents for Christ. Pastors will be encouraged to self-report continuing education activities and take charge of their lifelong learning. The ministry resource library is 100% uniquely Seventh-day Adventist, and focused on one goal; leading others to Christ. Resources will support pastoral professional growth, provide quality content for leading in ministry, and help pastors empower their church members.
