OUR HISTORY

 

Redemptive Life Christian Fellowship as a Church, came into existence in 2007. Shortly thereafter, the Pastor was moved to begin in-house training for members who had been called into the ordained ministry. Having been an Adjunct Professor at various seminaries in the Greater Atlanta area for over seventeen years, Dr. Thompson decided to adapt the curriculum from those various seminaries for those who would commit themselves to the call of ministry.

 

In 2007, along with fellow Master’s level instructors, Dr. Thompson opened the Ministers In Training school, again for those who were members of Redemptive Life Christian Fellowship. By 2024, over twenty-four individuals have been ordained to the Christian Ministry, with more individuals in the que. Of the twenty-four, each of them are now operating in some capacity of their calling, having been trained and equipped to do ministry. However, being requested by former students for additional classroom instruction, and in particular, the inward calling to expand the curriculum offered beyond the doors of one Church, Ministers In Training is now adjusted in becoming an institute of learning that is open to anyone across the nation, and even the world.

 

To this end, knowing the profound power and necessity of trained ministers, and the need to equip individuals who are proficient in ministry and or Pastoral Ministry, the Ministers In Training Institute has been birthed and offered to those who are serious and willing to be trained. It is the institutes prayer and mission to not only instruct serious candidates for ministerial orders, but to provide communities with clergy that prepared to serve.
