CTS has her own character, and offers a solid program of studies, a stout platform of Bible, theology, history, apologetics, and missions on which to build their ministry. We offer students, ministers, and worship leaders first-class education and continuing education in preaching and worship in a welcoming atmosphere with a manageable workload where learning is inside a cradle of grace. We share a Reformed vision of an interconnected Creation, Fall, Redemption, and Consummation, with Jesus Christ at the center, and the people of God as the witnesses, agents, and models of God's purpose to make all things new. These characteristics give CTS a mission in the world to lend her particular passions and strengths so that the Spirit may inspire all to declare God's purpose in the world and to make it their own. 17 17 150 0 0 0 9467643 5587906 2717386 2511298 624394 607129 9351 10910 12818774 8717243 1853718 1644113 0 0 5025544 4456942 0 0 670461 3496276 3036914 10375538 9137969 2443236 -420726 42991527 44850819 3101552 3333987 39889975 41516832 Our mission is to prepare people for visionary leadership in ministry, to give them what they need to respond to the Holy Spirit's call throughout their lives, to bring nations to Christ, build His church, and extend God's Kingdom.
