| Other Prerequisites | BTCP students are normally biblically qualified pastors, lay pastors, elders, deacons, or evangelists who are functioning in church ministry, or have been called to do so, but have not had the benefit of formal theological or ministry training. Likewise, BTCL students are church leaders who equally need and desire biblical training in order to become more effective in their ministries. |
