If you are starting in bi-vocational/co-vocational ministry or are thinking about it, this certification course is perfect for you. It prepares you for everything you need and the challenges you could potentially see. The videos and the books are filled with content but not long and overwhelming, so you can go at your own pace and pick up right where you left off. I highly recommend this course and believe that learning through Church Answers will be the place to go for future church leaders.
