Characteristic of CCST Vancouver

INTEGRATIVE LEARNING

Our programs integrate spiritual growth, theological knowledge, and ministry skills. We aim to train passionate pastors, mission workers and lay leaders to serve in different churches, communities and mission fields.

PURPOSE DRIVEN LEARNING

The Master of Theological Studies Program (MTS) is designed for Christians who have been serving in churches, or who are actively involved in church ministries. Not only do students learn in the areas of their interests, but also gain a systematic understanding in the Bible, theology, church history and spirituality. The Master of Divinity (M.Div.) program is designed for Christians who are called to become full-time ministers. An internship program is a mandatory requirement for the program.

PREPARE FOR THE FUTURE

CCST Vancouver Graduates are qualified to achieve higher academic degrees accredited by other ATA accredited seminaries.

COMPREHENSIVE TRAINING

CCST Vancouver's program is designed in a progressive framework. Students will follow the curriculum and study systematically. Full-time students will be able to complete their programs in the stated time period.

MENTORSHIP

All courses at CCST Vancouver are offered in a classroom setting. Students are encouraged to interact with the teachers and with each other. We treasure the method of discipleship just like the relationship between Jesus and His disciples. We believe the importance of mentoring and discussions in learning process.

CONTEXTUALIZED LEARNING

Churches in Canada, especially in Vancouver, have trilingual congregations and communities. Most of our instructors have many years of experience in academic teaching or pastoral ministries in Chinese churches in North America. They are well-equipped to train our students to meet the needs of the trilingual churches.
