Recently on the Pastors College blog, Jeff Purswell, Director of Theology & Training, introduced the current PC class of 2021.

As you might imagine, we’ve spent a great deal of time making program adjustments and contingency plans in the face of the remarkable season in which we find ourselves. Yet, none of that dampened the joy and anticipation we experienced last week. We are marveling yet again at the quality of students and their families sent to us by our churches.

The mission of the Pastors College is to teach men how to build their lives and families and churches upon the gospel of Jesus Christ.  When the gospel is consistently and faithfully applied, it produces a particular kind of pastor—and you know it when you see it. They become joyful, humble, grateful, encouraging, servant-hearted shepherds. Such pastors display the beauty and power of the gospel they proclaim. They are infectious, resilient, and steadfast—in a word, faithful. And these are the kinds of pastors whose own joy in Christ creates cultures of joy, humility, servanthood, and grace in the churches they lead.

Please join us in welcoming and praying for these students and their families.
