Vision and Mission of Trinity Theological College

The vision of Trinity Theological College is to serve God’s purpose of bringing all nations under the saving rule of His Son through the proclamation of the Gospel.

In His grace, God has equipped His people to participate in this work and so all Christians are servants of the Lord, the Gospel and the Church.

In God’s providence He gives to some the responsibility of 'preparing God’s people for works of service' (Eph 4:12). Teaching and preaching the Word of God is indispensable to this ‘preparing.’

Equipping those who prepare others by teaching and preaching the word of God is therefore an essential priority for the Church (2 Tim 2:2). The major role of Trinity Theological College is to do this equipping.

Essential elements for this equipping are:

integrating theology, devotion, context and practice;

modelling Christian leadership;

fostering a community that worships God, encourages one another and engages in evangelism; and

pursuing theological depth.

We are committed to providing training which:

Expresses the core values of

deepening personal devotion to God our Saviour;
wholehearted submission to the Bible as God's word;
biblical and theological depth;
sustained focus on ministry;

Embodies the fundamental principles of

integration, the meshing of knowing and doing;
frameworks, the "maps" which promote broad understanding;
development, the process of continued learning;

Exhibits the qualities of
- openness and humility in intellectual inquiry;
- integrity and accountability;
- prayerfulness;
- Christian fellowship and care

Therefore, we will:

Provide the Resources necessary to offer training of the highest quality, especially be maintaining:

an experienced and well-qualified teaching faculty;

a well-equipped library;

adequate facilities and administrative structures;

Secure the support necessary for continuing this work by

informing people of our needs in a way that encourages them to pray for us and support us financially;

encouraging those who support us to keep doing so;

taking steps to increase the number of people who support our work.
