Take a closer look at our course
The first year of the course covers the same lecture material as the two-year PT Ministry Training Course, but in one year rather than two. In addition, students on the Cornhill Training Course learn together in small groups for additional training and Teaching Practice. Each student also receives individual mentoring from a Cornhill tutor.
In the second year, advanced expository lectures cover an additional eleven Bible books, covering all the major Bible genres. There are extended Teaching Practice sessions, where students give 20-minute talks. Expository Seminars delve deeply into four Bible books, developing and enhancing the analytical skills crucial for lifelong ministry.
Elective modules offer specialised training in areas like Evangelistic Preaching, Women’s Ministry, Youth & Children’s Ministry, Bible Group Studies. Students engage annually in evangelistic outreach on missions with churches and Christian Unions.
The course also covers:
- Understanding class and the evangelical church
- Dealing pastorally with key life events
- Dealing pastorally with mental health challenges
- Pastorally dealing with the realm of relationships
- Understanding the current state of British Evangelicalism
Optional weekly Greek classes are available at the end of the day in Year 2.
