Education For Ministry (EFM)

Education For Ministry is an extension of the Programs Center of the School of Theology of the University of the South at Sewanee, Tennessee which offers lay persons an opportunity to grow in their faith and also grow in understanding of the kind of ministries that they might be able to perform in the Church or the world.

Over four years the student studies Old Testament, New Testament, Church History, and Theology in a support group context with trained mentors as guides in the journey.

The goal of the program is informed and competent Christian lay leaders who will make a difference in the world.

Participation requires serious commitment, but there are no examinations or papers required and the benefits are wondrous.
