WE ARE ONE COLLEGE OVERVIEW
WHO WE ARE
We Are One College is a four-year program that offers training in specialized ministry practicums, well rounded development courses, and essential leadership skills to equip you for the future. Through this educational opportunity, we guarantee you will have the experiences needed in order to grow with the skillset and integrity needed to fulfill God’s call on your life.
Ministry isn’t a one-size-fits-all; therefore, We Are One College offers five specialized ministry practicums to allow you the opportunity to explore your passions, gifts, and calling in an immersive setting. Each practicum will offer We Are One students over “4,800 hours” of experience over the course of four years to sharpen their talents in their area of choice.
VISION
We envision each graduate of We Are One College to acquire the integrity of heart and skillset necessary to be a good steward of the calling God has placed upon their life. Upon graduating, each student will be declared qualified by: 1. A college degree of their choice, along with 2. A portfolio of skills acquired from full immersion training that has readied them to advance the kingdom wherever God may lead.
BENEFITS
SELF
Through a number of personal assessments, personality tests, book discussions, and teachings on the characteristics and traits of a leader, it is our goal that each student will graduate from We Are One College as a stronger, more confident leader with a better understanding of themselves and their role within ministry. Does your heart truly beat for ministry and those who are hurting? Let's find out!
SKILLS
While having a heart for the ministry is essential to your calling, it is also crucial to develop the skills necessary to build and maintain that ministry. Each practicum has been structured to give students a well-rounded taste of that specific ministry. Along with over 500 hours of hands-on ministry, students will have the opportunity to be trained in specific skills within each alternative practicum. We have created a "badge system" that will test the skills of each student and allow them the opportunity to graduate from We Are One College with a resume full of developed and hirable ministry skills.
SPIRITUAL
Growing spiritually as you pursue your ministry calling and journey through your academic career is absolutely essential. If you develop personally and expand your skillset but never discipline yourself spiritually, your ministry will not -- and cannot -- be sustained. It is our goal to create an environment for each student to not only grow but THRIVE in their spiritual walk so that the disciplines they develop in college will stick with them throughout the duration of their lives and ministry. Studying the Bible with peers and pastoral leadership and gaining wisdom through devotional teachings are just a couple avenues that students will have the opportunity to expand their spiritual knowledge and disciplines.
