Global Church Network and Assemblies of God Theological Seminary partner to address growing shortfall of pastors

Formal relationship makes accredited online courses available to thousands of emerging ministry leaders around the world

ORLANDO, Fla. — The Global Church Divinity School (GCDS), an online pastor training resource launched in 2001 by the Global Church Network (GCN), is excited to announce a formal partnership with Assemblies of God Theological Seminary (AGTS) at Evangel University in Springfield, Missouri, to provide GCDS students accredited graduate credit hours toward a Master’s degree from AGTS.

“The greatest need in the Global Church today is not more models, money or methods, but God-called, Christ-centered, Kingdom-minded, Spirit-empowered, Bible-based preachers, who can communicate to the Now Generation and lead the Church toward the fulfillment of the Great Commission,” said Dr. James O. Davis, founder of GCN and GCDS, and himself an AGTS graduate. “We are honored to synergize together with the Assemblies of God Theological Seminary to address the shortfall of trained ministers and make accredited, world-class training more accessible to busy professionals and those living far from traditional seminaries.” | More
