Equipping for Gospel Intentionality in all of Life
MOVEMENT SEMINARY
Movement Seminary exists to equip the church to live all of life with gospel intentionality by offering local, affordable, robust, and practical training that aims to develop character, competency, and conviction.
LOCAL
Movement Seminary wants to bring training into the local church context.
AFFORDABLE
High quality equipping should not require a high price tag.
ROBUST
The content does not compromise, but rather attempts to offer resources and opportunities that will create strong and healthy disciple-makers.
PRACTICAL
The training offered requires each student to implement the content into their life and ministry.
APPROACH
Movement Seminary serves the church with training that develops strong foundations for ministry.

Movement Seminary offers multiple levels of training:
